Another attempt a the 1903 battleship-cruiser design

Apparently, the primary problem with my first attempt at the 1903 battleship-cruiser design was heavy machinery. By lightening the machinery weight, the design became much better. This is a ship with 8-12in/45 and 12-6in QF guns. The belt is now 8in/11in, the deck is 3in and the torpedo bulkhead is 2in. That makes for a better ship, as you would expect:
