Were Russian circular warships an idea ahead of their controls?

What should be made of the Russian circular warships?

They are considered an interesting idea that arrived before suitable controls, while modern technical feasibility alone would not justify building them.

The Russian circular ships are treated as an interesting idea whose contemporary control arrangements were inadequate. The suggestion is that modern technology could make such a vessel possible to control. That technical possibility is immediately separated from any recommendation to build one. The exchange does not establish a present-day mission that would justify reviving the layout.
