I agree with your summation except for that one sentence. 'DE', 'DD', 'BB' etcetera were specifically American classifications. No other navy used anything like them. Therefore, if a Hunt is going to have any kind of letter designation, what's wrong with 'DE'? A lot of people today bristle at battlecruisers being called 'CB', claiming it should be 'BC'; but the Americans were the only ones to do that, so...?
