They're good buses on city work hence there's loads in service in London so would be ideal working around in Hull. The EvoSetis are B5's aswell so you'd just be swapping B5's for B5's.Eyms don't generally operate city only services in Hull. They go out to the surrounding villages. The city roads are very cobwebby in their layout, though, so they will serve main roads like holderness Road and Beverley Road, just like the angel serves Durham Road and the 56 Old Durham Road, before they leave the city.
What comes up doesn't really matter though I suppose with the 69 plate Enviros. More B9's instead of the Enviro 400's could work either really for the 16/16A and have more fleet continuity. Even if it's the older ones so it balances out the age of the fleets a bit or if it doesn't actually need deckers bring some singles instead either.
