JT brought up some points of comparison.

to which one might add, the proportion of the national enterprise
dedicated to murderous endeavor was -- I'm pretty sure -- much higher

over a much longer time so that cumulatively...

Even so, there are important philosophical and procedural differences
that I, for one, cherish.
