Best estimates are that if the repair facilities and/or the carriers had been destroyed, the navy would have retreated to San Diego. This would greatly delayed the ability to react to Japanese forces.

What if Japan had a more aggressive admiral that launched more attacks? And after Pearl, took Midway?
