Admiral Kimmel in the Guadalcanal campaign

What if Admiral Kimmel had been reassigned to MacArthur's command instead of removed from service?

His competence and night-fighting experience could have improved US naval performance during the Guadalcanal campaign.

Reassigning Kimmel to MacArthur's command would give the theatre a capable senior naval officer. His night-fighting skills could affect the Guadalcanal campaign. The proposed benefit rests on those abilities, without predicting a specific battle result.
