Humorous take on the shrinkage of the immediate WWI battleships and battlecruisers. I have suspected for a long time that the G3 and N3, both around 48-49,000 tons, were a bluff, and a bargaining chip, at the Washington Conference, because, when negotiating the displacement escalator in 38, the UK was pressing for a 42-43,000 ton limit, due to infrastructure limitations.
