It's easy to justify a faction building a carrier on top of their current one (Liberty, Rheinland, Order etc.) to increase its capability in carrying more and more assets into battle, spreading its influence or simply bridging a gap, such as new light carrier to accompany already existing heavy counterpart battleship (or other way around). You can be very creative with it.
In short, make term "carrier" merely a name that explains its INRP'ly higher aptitude for basing snub operations away from installations than other vessels in its faction line.
