Replacement cycles instead of preserving Hood

How would Britain make Hood, Repulse, and Prince of Wales as capable as possible under this treaty?

Hood would ultimately be replaced, while recurring construction would produce successive improved designs rather than one final treaty generation.

Hood's original structure places a hard limit on modernization. Under the proposed system, she could remain among the last pre-treaty ships because she sat close to the new limits, but she would ultimately be replaced. A continuing construction cycle would let Britain learn from successive treaty battleship designs instead of waiting for one late generation such as the King George V class. Regular replacement preserves design experience and avoids placing the entire burden of modernization on ageing ships.
