The "problem" (I hesitate to use the word because open warfare fucking sucks) is that the West has been thoroughly brain poisoned by not having seen an actual open, peer level conflict in 3/4 of a century. Since WW2 the West has only ever conceived of war in terms of abstracts or fighting against barely equipped targets.
Five rounds a day for artillery makes perfect sense when your artillerymen are spending 80% of the war bored and jacking off, maybe called up once a day to bombard a small village. The idea of needing to desperately bombard a position for hours to drive a determined and equipped force back is literally beyond the Western mind most of the time.

I will forever be ashamed that I bought into the hype and propaganda around Canada's introduction of this and was a tacit supporter of it. Seeing it as it is, fucking eugenics plan that's now spreading, is just abysmal.
Anyone who even thinks this let alone utters it in person should be strapped to a chair and forced to read the Queering The Map entries in Palestine, including that absolutely heart wrenching paragraph about someone never telling someone they loved them before it was too late. They should be forced to reread them over and over like it's fucking Clockwork Orange until they break down.
