I wasn't surprised Japan attacked Pearl Harbor. There were tensions going on for a few months before the attack.
I also read that there is a big fuel depot on Pearl Harbor. It remained intact. If the Japanese actually bombed that fuel depot. It would have huger impact.



yes, survival of the fuel depots and repair shops and absence of US aircraft carriers had great impact.
