First no incivility was intended, but I can see where one might interpret it as meaner spirited then intended. I should have put a smilie in there. Sorry for any offence.
My only concern with the using of "Ship of the Line" is that it gives Disney nowhere to go if they want to put out an even bigger ship in the future. Once you have "Ship of the Line" how can you go up? Heavy frigate or Indiaman would probably be better or maybe something like cruiser. which is kind of what you said, I think. But that can be worked around when and if need be.
