There was no switch 'meant' to happen. There's not much reason to believe there ever was a switch, either. There's too much against it to be plausible.

3 biggest moving ships in history


What ships are those? Certainly not the Olympics. There were larger ships completed even before Britannic.

OLYMPIC WAS SCRAPED IN 1937 WHEN ITS HULL WENT FOR SCRAP YARDD WITCH I SAY WAS NOT FARE AS IT WAS ONE OF THE GRANDEST SHIPS IN ITS TIME AND IT WAS STILL CAPLE BULL OF DOING 23 KNOTS WERE THE FASTEST SHIP IN THE WOALD DOSE 32 KNOTS SO IT WASENT OUTDATED AT A,LL


Olympic wasn't incredibly grand or splendrous compared to some of the other ships that were out there. And 23 knots in an era of 30+ knot ships isn't outdated? If you say so...

It wasn't "converted to oil instead of steam." It was still a steamship after its conversion to oil. The boilers were just fired with oil instead of coal.
