I am really loving your historical analogies and how they demolish the whole 'heroic acts and sacrifices win wars' toxic trope. If fewer people bought into that mindset there would be far fewer people throwing their lives away as an act of misguided patriotism.

We keep thinking that Russian losses are unsustainable but it appears that it just becomes a steady decline in quality. At what point does the quality become so low that their ability to defend disintegrate?

Don't get even, get odd.
