A faster Nelson under a 40,000-ton treaty

What would the Nelson class have looked like if the Washington Naval Treaty allowed 40,000-ton battleships?

It would likely be faster and better protected while retaining a three-turret, 16-inch-gun concept, perhaps reaching about 28 knots.

The counterfactual uses a faster, roughly 28-knot ship with a three-turret layout and 16-inch guns. The additional displacement could also support heavier armor. The same discussion shows how the same treaty change would cascade into more powerful cruiser designs and alter the relative position of ships such as the Deutschlands.
