There would be no reason to arm them before they are put in the racks/K-guns, so that can't be it.
Maybe they were worried about torpedo hits setting them off.
Or, perhaps, there was no good way of hoisting them up from below? I would've thought they had something along the lines of a shell hoist near the stern for this purpose, but apparently not.
Anyway, nice photos.
