Not so sure about that, really. At least the hull boxes are useful -
contrary to, eg, the NAC doctrine which puts the heaviest protection on
the units least likely to be fired at <g>

Of course, egg-shell carriers are an even better way of bringing
fighters to the battle, putting fighter groups on CL and smaller means
that they won't have any other offensive armament and heavy enemy use
of ADFC makes fighters a liability <g>
