My question is why couldn't the better integrate the stack with the superstructure, increasing deck space available for cargo. I know the superstructure has to be somewhat forward for navigation purposes, but...with a ship like this, forget radar-less navigation period. And if weight/balance is an issue, that's what cargo planning is for.
Actually, you can't. There's several laws that require you to be able to do radar less navigation.
Besides, if you look closely, you'll realize that the stack and superstructure doesn't take up more space in total than a traditional combined setup does.
