I think it is still a usefull component in attack ships. Yes, if AI finds minefield it sweeps it efficiently in middle/late game, but AI still does not include dedicated sweepers into attacking fleets AFAIK. If enemy reseeds minefiled, attacking fleet can get into trouble.

Actually, what I am thinking of is leaving them on ships up to perhaps BC size, but removing them from BBs and DNs. Not sure yet, though.

Of course they do. But have you ever heard of software tuning ? Come here, you're gonna get a private demonstration.
