Malta, CVA-01, and carrier replacement timing

Could Malta-class carriers, CVA-01s, and later successors form a rolling British carrier replacement sequence?

The answer calls the sequence possible but unlikely because carrier service lives normally run three to four decades, pushing replacements into different political and budget windows.

The sequence of Malta-class carriers, CVA-01s, and later successors is technically possible, but the proposed timing is too compressed. Carriers usually serve for roughly three to four decades. Major replacement decisions would therefore fall into late Cold War procurement politics and then move toward a 2020s or 2030s successor question.
