What does Queen Elizabeth reveal about Bretagne's turret layout?

What does a side-by-side comparison with a British dreadnought show about the French turret arrangement?

Queen Elizabeth kept its guns on roughly three levels and lowered the stern to save weight, while Bretagne spread its turrets across a more complicated set of heights.

Bretagne is placed beside a Queen Elizabeth-class battleship, with a warning that the images are at slightly different scales. The British ship keeps its turrets on roughly three levels, with the aft arrangement lowered as the stern falls away. That cut-down stern saves hull weight and can contribute to speed without multiplying the number of gun heights. Bretagne's arrangement is more complicated, adding another burden to firing calculations and weight distribution. The side-by-side view makes clear that turret placement is part of a whole-ship design rather than an isolated choice.
