Would France build larger Dunkerques or more of them?

With a more generous treaty, would France build bigger Dunkerque-type ships or more smaller ones?

The initial preference is for bigger ships, with smaller yards potentially used for carriers instead.

A larger displacement allowance would not create additional French shipyards. Building a bigger hull in an available yard is presented as less demanding than adding another hull to the program. The discussion then notes that the yards suited to larger capital ships differ from those building Dunkerque and Strasbourg. Using major yards for battleships and smaller facilities for carriers is suggested as a way to divide the work. The result remains a conditional industrial choice within the proposed treaty settlement.
