Why do we still use “view from the trenches” as a metaphor for practical wisdom? That was grim, deeply futile, attrition warfare. How about “view from the tank turret” instead?

The best tank battles were won or lost already in the map room. So the view from the turret is good for sorting out a skirmish not for winning the battle.
