As an expert cruiser builder...well if you have 18.1 inch guns as your main battery and 40.6 cm as secondaries, then have a few 20inch guns isn't that big of a deal. I mean, the KMS Prinz Eugen has 53cm guns as her primaries, though granted she is 540m long and 50m wide, so she might classify as a battlecruiser.

But I don't want to start another "-insert name of ship that is like USS Alaska- is a Battlecruiser, not -insert light/heavy/large- cruiser" argument again.
