The problem with present DDs are making a generic type 4 can add a Tribal or J class or many of them as convoy escorts. I only use named type 4 in the RND so this can not happen.
The other problem is Polish, Yanks or any other are not Brits which were the vast majority of NA escorts. (The Canadians going half way and then changing over to the Brits can not be done or at least not easily and without disappearing mid Atlantic convoys)
The A-H classes that were converted were converted to convoy escorts so classing them as DE would actually be more appropriate for SH3 as they then could be used in the type 3 generic listings. It would be nice to have the 3 Hunt classes, the "A" type converted as well as the GW added US as Brit DE so the DE use could vary more and be the dominate convoy escort.
Then a proper River with the Black Swan and corvettes would better cover the reality of convoy escorting.
Yes, many great new ships in GWX.
I am a TypeVIIC driver in the NA primarily so tweak that area and tend to over emphasize what I would like for it. I also realize many other areas were vastly improved in GWX that type 3s are not as important as they are in the NA.
