Why the British Pacific Fleet did not default to night strikes

Would British Pacific Fleet night strikes against kamikaze bases have made sense in 1945?

Possibly near the Japanese home islands, but strong daylight fighter cover and weak Japanese daytime defence could make daylight strikes the safer choice.

Operations closer to the Japanese home islands could have strengthened the case for night attacks on kamikaze bases. Weak Japanese daylight air defence and the fleet's large combat air patrol could still make daylight strikes safer. Launch and recovery timing, distance from the target, and the cost in trained aircrew all affected the choice. Night-flying doctrine supplied an option whose value still depended on the circumstances of the operation.
