One point missing here that the Ostfriesland didn't have any magazines. So it may have been possible she would have gone boom so again it wasn't real world for that reason alone.
Arizona would have survived or perhaps controlled sunk into the shallows if the bomb had been a dud or had exploded in a non vital area.
Had the Washington Naval Treaty not happend then we would have the G3 and N3, South Dakota battleships, Lexington Battlecruisers, Tosa battleships and Amagi Battlecruisers.
So what effect would Mitchell had based on this alternate history? Nothing. However, Lexington, Saratoga, Kaga and Akagi became aircraft carriers as there was tonnage available for this cause.
