All correct now :-)

No. The de la Valette has the correct hull integrity and is a legal
design; it's just that it doesn't have the Mass and cost specified on
your page :-) It is slightly bigger (not enough to require bigger
engines, fortunately) and slightly less expensive (since the shields of
the St.Cyril class were replaced with engines, and engines are cheaper).

Not on the web page, though :-( It still carries:

2xClass 2 Battery (360/FH) = 3+2 = 5 Mass
3xClass 3 batteries, (LS/RS/FH) = 3x6 = 18
2xClass 1 Battery = 2x1 = 2
14 tons module space = 14
5xFire Control = 5
6xPDS = 6
Armor rating 9 = 9
Level 2 Shields = 25
2 Fighter bays = 18

for a total of 102 Mass.

Both correct now :-)

I thought that was the speciality of the NRE, not the IF...? <G>
