History was filled with simplistic tactics during a time of war that, when observing with a rational mind one might not believe had any chance of possibly succeeding. And if one were purely logical and rational this would indeed be the result 100/100 times.
But most of the time a plan that was perfectly conceived, and perfectly thought through failed not because there was faulty logic within the plot itself. But because of the execution of said scheme.
Why was execution usually the failing point? Because unlike everything else involved, whether that be the logistics, strategy, or tactics prepared in advance, it was ultimately the execution that was prone to the most severe and often overlooked critical mistake.
Human error. Those two words, when combined together in sequence described something that could even further be simplified by the term stupidity. In this world, as a human, you were forced to interact with other people, whether directly or indirectly.
