Seriously, if they are intimidated enough not to act... then 1 carrier is all that is needed. If they're not intimidated enough, than 2 carriers won't change anything except to raise tensions.

That's the whole point. Tension is good - tension always leads to resolution. Resolution can take many forms, it might be violent or not. There will be no resolution however without tension.
Tension and conflict is the basis of every great moment in life, personal or global. A prolonged gobal conflict (ie world war), The last minute of overtime in hockey, when your wife/girlfriend says "we need to talk", an impending sneeze, proposing to the woman of your dreams, the sustained diminished chord at the end of a beautiful hymn.. all are tension and/or conflict and all have resolution - and mostly beautiful in these cases.
If life is going to be interesting at all, tension and conflict must be embraced so one can experience the resolution (good or bad).
