My quibbles are with the fluff - it's a fine ship.

Rather than a purpose-built "relief cruiser," wouldn't this be more likely to be a converted cruiser that had been nearing the end of its life?

I mean, aside from the hospital and the mission statement, what this cruiser carries is perfectly normal (if a bit slow at 3/5) "cruiser stuff." If I was building relief ships, I'd aim for several ships that were a lot cheaper (3-5 billion CB vs 17) and expect the regular Navy to provide beefy escorts. But if I had an old warhorse laying around, all paid off but looking toward a date with the shipbreakers, I could definitely see converting that to a hospital ship. Get a few more decades out of that huge investment you convinced taxpayers to cover X decades earlier.
