Could infrastructure support a 100,000-ton Super Lion?

The feasibility of an extreme battleship design depends first on whether the supporting infrastructure could handle it.

Question

Was the British 100,000-ton Super Lion design insane?

Short answer

The feasibility depends on what infrastructure could support it; no simple yes-or-no verdict is given.

Notes

A 100,000-ton Super Lion would need infrastructure capable of supporting it. Judging its feasibility requires examining that supporting system. No particular facilities or engineering solution are specified.
