Changing tack slightly, what do the rest of the RN (None FAA) think of sacrifices that will be made by the service to secure two carriers?

If these SWAGs become reality then the RN are due to loose a significant portion of the surface fleet, on top of the ships and boats already sacrificed in the last few years to maintain the project.
Obviously the RN top brass have all brought into carrier centric operations and that is all us none RN hear, just like upper echelons of the RAF spouting fast jet rhetoric. However just like in the RAF there must be many who believe their masters may be 'slightly' misguided.

Naturally most contributions already on here from the RN will have a FAA slant.
