However, larger dockyards and shipyards because of this would make it easier to upgrade them to adopt machine-based mass production techniques in the future.

Well, it is found that most British shipyards were too small for modernization.
Dry docks available before WW2:
Belfast, Roysth, Clyde, Plymouth, Portsmouth, St. John (Canada), Esquimalt (Canada)
When the Hood was going down, her Bow vertical she apparently fired from her A turret one last time.
Many believe this was actually a magazine explosion.
However if it was, it was a very localised one, especially when compared to the after magazines.
But the Hoods stem did break off from the Rest of the ship.
So was it a magazine explosion?
Or was the effect of the main explosion enough to weaken the forward bow enough, that after she fired, it's integrity failed?
Or did it just implode, due to her going down so quickly
