Naval Propulsion Techno question

Naval Propulsion
Baseline: Simple & Complex Reciprocating Engines, Engine Year 1890
1895: Engine Year 1900
1902: Engine year 1905, Max. non-VTE power 5,000 HP/Shaft, Direct-drive Turbines
1905: Engine year 1909, Max. non-VTE power 12,000 HP/Shaft
1909: Engine year 1912, Max. non-VTE power 20,000 HP/Shaft
1913: Engine year 1916, Max. non-VTE power 35,000 HP/Shaft
1917: Engine year 1920, Max. non-VTE power 40,000 HP/Shaft, Engine year = year laid down.

If I understand well;
In 1902, we could research Direct Drive Turbine & note 1905 in SS (Engine Built).
The limitation is 5000shp per shaft => 20 000shp for the classic 4 shafts.

I have noted in some navies fast ACs actualy with 22 000 or 24 000shp with Complex Reciprocating Engine.

Did we maintain the 5000shp limitation for 1902 turbines ?

The limit is for Turbines only. VTE can have (theoretically) as much SPH as SS allows.
