The taller bridge allows for superior observation deck height, which is highly important because the earth isn't flat. But wait a minute, radar doesn't rely on that! Okay, yea it doesn't, but it will follow with: radar and optics for FIRECONTROL, the Japanese used radar first, optics for confirmation, bad FIRECONTROL? Type 91 fire control computer disagrees... Essentially, a taller bridge is well suited to the Pacific while a shorter bridge is better suited to the Atlantic, why? Because in the Atlantic BVR firing is almost completely impossible...
