Why larger carrier orders could improve naval aircraft sooner

Would 25,000-ton carriers bring modern Fleet Air Arm aircraft into service earlier?

Probably, because a larger carrier force would order more aircraft and create stronger incentives for earlier upgrades, though exact types and dates cannot be fixed.

A larger carrier fleet would require more aircraft and give the Fleet Air Arm stronger, continuous procurement demand. American aircraft available after December 1941 should not be compared directly with British machines fielded in September 1939 as though they represented the same design moment. Even so, sustained orders and larger flight decks could move British naval aviation towards more modern aircraft earlier. An enduring customer with enough scale could influence engines, airframes, and production.
