Agree, but then so too should Kitchener and Smith-Dorien (and possibly Haig). Kitchener and Haig were the people who had the foresight to see that the war would last several years and were some of the only senior commanders on either side to take a strategic view of the situation. Kitchener was the man who pushed the British economy and army into a long-term expansion programme to build and sustain a multi-million man field army, while Haig had the wherewithal to understand how the development of combined arms doctrines would essentially break the 'stalemate of the trenches'.
