IF there is a way to make ships non upgradable one can tinker a lot more. Like Scharnorst and Gneisenau were factually modern, but battlecruisers. They'd not win vs the Rodney or Nelson in general - no. But they'd outrun them. IF you can lock ships in their 'upgrade tier', you can have Old-Slow BBs in '39, you can have Old-Fast BBs, in '40 tier (fast = +1 Action point maybe? Example), Modern-Fast BC in 41 slot (Which may mean less gunnery than a BB, but maybe more defence? To mirror more speed, to evade combat?). One in that case has not to see '39, '40, '41 as a sequence, but just as a categorizing where a ship is frozen in time - due to no upgrades. And chassis can be used for both BB and CA, as their base stats are different.
