Respectfully, Carnot is not objectively worse than Agir.
Carnot's HE shells do better damage per strike and has better HE dpm, albeit worse HE pen.
Carnot's shells travel faster and have flatter ballistic arcs.

Carnot has access to DFAA and 20% SPEED BOOST that lasts a loooong time.
Carnot has a 36mm deck that is not overmatched by any guns in the game. Agir has a 30mm deck overmatched by 434mm and higher.

It's different - not worse

No argument from me there, Brother. I love the Agir

Hi, there!
Devblog post with characteristics is here: https://blog.worldofwarships.com/blog/273
At each ship's max range:

T8 Cherbourg: Maximum dispersion - 197 м. Sigma – 1.80 (17.7km)
T9 Brest: Maximum dispersion - 201 м. Sigma – 1.80 (18.2km)
T10 Marseille: Maximum dispersion - 213 м. Sigma – 1.80 (19.6km)
Compare to: (at 18km - max range on Dunk, the Max dispersion gets higher the farther the range)
T6 Dunkerque: Maximum dispersion - 242 м. Sigma – 1.70
T7 Strasbourg: Maximum dispersion - 242 м. Sigma – 1.80
T8 Richelieu: Maximum dispersion - 242 м. Sigma – 1.80
T9 Jean Bart: Maximum dispersion - 242 м. Sigma – 1.80

Compare to: (at 18km - slightly above max range on Charles, but dispersion get higher as range increases)

T8 Charles Martel: Maximum dispersion - 157 м. Sigma – 2.00
T9 Saint Louis: Maximum dispersion - 157 м. Sigma – 2.05
T10 Henri IV: Maximum dispersion - 157м. Sigma – 2.05
According to the numbers, these new cruisers function as "battlecruisers" - meaning their dispersion is between Cruiser and Battleship levels, but Sigma is Battleship level due to the BB caliber to the guns.

The person on stream was likely the EU rep - so "accuracy" may not have been the word he was looking for. Cross-language gets more difficult the more specific we need to be.
Id' cut him some slack
