G3 appearance and a possible F3-style turret layout

Why did Royal Navy design documents judge the G3 battlecruiser's appearance less favorably than earlier capital ships?

The third turret's unusual position looked awkward despite its armor advantages, and construction could have shifted toward an F3-style arrangement.

The G3's third turret looked awkward despite advantages in armour distribution and fire control. An F3-style arrangement with all three turrets forward is proposed as a possible change during construction. In that interpretation, the superstructure would move aft, C turret would be raised, and A and B would remain lower. Greater separation between the magazines and boiler spaces would help maintain even magazine temperatures. The earlier F3 option had been rejected because it lacked an aft-firing gun. A later switch remains a strong suspicion expressed in the discussion, rather than a completed redesign.
