Assume your build rate is 4500 (which is what your minimum rate should be as an Organic Race in the mid-game). You can build a good non-organic Battleship for about 18k minerals. You can design a decent Organic battleship for 9k/9k min/org. This means you can can build organic ships twice as fast as non-organic ships. The two to one odds are hard to overcome in the initial contact.

Obviously, both sides can modify their designs after they see what the enemy is using, but, by then, it is usually too late.
