I agree, nothing more than hyperbole. Bomb the locks? LOL, it would have been fixed quickly. The IJN could have sunk all 3 CVs at Midway, AND taken the island, would have delayed the war by a few months at best. Japan had zero chance of winning the war, even if they themselves thought they had a 10% chance of winning right before they started it—and this required a negotiated peace. Negotiation was required before the new naval construction in the US started coming off the slipways in 1943. PH made any such negotiation moot, it would not happen. Japan loses.
