Did British losses at Jutland explain the Royal Navy's concern about night fighting?
Short answerThe response emphasizes frustration at the German escape and at Germany's limited use of its night-fighting advantage, rather than fear caused chiefly by British losses.
NotesThe Royal Navy expected to lose ships in a major battle, even though it wanted to avoid those losses. The more frustrating result at Jutland was that the Germans escaped and failed to exploit their own advantage in night fighting as aggressively as the British believed they would have done in the same position. The response distinguishes that frustration from fear of the losses themselves. Submarines prompted a different reaction, associated here with the Royal Navy's frequent zigzagging.
