One Kooky Navy Captain and a amateur think CVN’s are obsolete. Do you know anything about real world Navy operations? Do you know about Anti Submarine Warfare? In a HOT war with China or Russian the first step would be to contain the sub threat BEFORE the CVBG and amphibious operation even start. In wartime losing contact with an enemy attack sub would preclude any CVBG operations in the area of probability of the sub. Do you know what an area of probability is?
