During the Pacific War one of the many problems the Japanese faced was a lack of fuel for their ships. What if any difference would it have made had the fleet remained coal fired, as that is something Japan has plenty of?

Admittedly coaling ship and stoking the boilers is a pig of a job and beneath noble samuri but thats why the gods created lesser breeds like Koreans and Formosans. Right?
