Would every British pre-dreadnought be lost?

How severe would losses among the pre-dreadnoughts be?

Losses would be horrendous, but it would be too strong to assume that every pre-dreadnought was destroyed.

Pre-dreadnoughts would suffer heavily in the proposed close-range battle. Fighting at such distances would expose both sides to indiscriminate destruction. That does not justify assuming that every British pre-dreadnought would be lost. Lord Nelson and Agamemnon are singled out when qualifying that prediction.
