Why British warships needed better habitability than German ships

Why were High Seas Fleet interiors less comfortable than those of comparable British warships?

German ships were designed for shorter operations near home, while British ships needed habitability and diplomatic space for long global deployments.

The answer ties accommodation directly to operational geography. High Seas Fleet ships could be comparatively sparse because they expected to sortie into the North Sea and return home. Royal Navy ships had to remain abroad for long periods and operate throughout a global network. They also served diplomatic purposes, so living and hosting spaces were part of the design requirement rather than mere comfort.
