The more my eyes are opened to the history of warfare, and the commonality of irregular warfare(with UW as a subset slice of irregular warfare), I'm left asking the question of whether part of the problem may lie with the confusion that non-professionals(politicians, academics, and general public) have surrounding how uncommon "regular"/conventional wars are and how common irregular wars are?
The nomenclature is backwards.
It's like Opposite Day, everyday.
And I'm guessing the big corporate machine conventional force turf wars represent a substantial headwind.
