The appeal of unfinished Admiral hulls as fast carriers

Could additional Admiral-class hulls have become aircraft carriers instead of completed battlecruisers?

Potentially; their unfinished, fast battlecruiser hulls made them attractive candidates for a carrier conversion in an alternate interwar programme.

Because an unfinished hull does not have to be preserved as a completed battlecruiser, it offers greater room for radical conversion. Additional Admiral-class hulls could become carriers instead of leaving Courageous and Glorious to fill that role. Their battlecruiser origins offer the main attraction of speed, which would help a carrier operate with fast fleet units. The proposal remains a counterfactual design path, but it shows why partially built ships can be more adaptable than worn completed vessels.
