Realistically, an aircraft carrier is an offensive weapon, not just a chess piece.
I agree. Like any offensive chess piece, there's a time to use it and a time to keep it in reserve.
Given the way the game is set up (like it or not) if you don't own the port it's time to put the CV in reserve until such time as you need it for offensive action. Just steaming it on over to the nearest enemy base is a waste of resources.
