Larger Hawkins cruisers and treaty limits

What if the Hawkins class had been 14,000-ton cruisers with four triple 7.5-inch turrets?

The answer suggests larger Hawkins-style cruisers could push treaty cruiser limits upward and open space for more small carriers below the capital-ship threshold.

One altered cruiser design could ripple into treaty definitions. A 14,000-ton Hawkins with triple turrets would pull the cruiser standard toward roughly 15,000 tons, possibly raising capital-ship limits and changing cruiser debates at London. The same displacement space could let navies build more Hermes-like light carriers outside the main fleet-carrier category, reshaping carrier numbers before the Second World War.
