The proposed name Sovereign of the Seas is explicitly speculative, but the discussion notes that Ark Royal was at one point considered as more than a single-ship class. A second similar carrier would have reduced the Royal Navy's numerical disadvantage against the United States carrier force. The Yorktown class carried larger air groups, yet the answer does not treat that difference as overwhelming beside two Ark Royal-type ships. The watch point is useful for separating an imagined ship name from the genuine strategic effect of authorizing another carrier hull.

A second Ark Royal would narrow the interwar carrier gap
Speculation about a sister named Sovereign of the Seas leads to the real force-structure question of what another Ark Royal-type carrier would mean against the Yorktown class.
