Sun Tzu, Julius Ceasar, Alexander the Great, and all of the greatest military tacticians & strategists through recorded history took great pains to avoid bloodshed and losing/harming their men when at all possible.
They fought alongside their men, and shared their emotional & physical pain.
Those who study & know military history understand this.
Those who only know war through briefings, paychecks, or opinion pieces they are paid to write have no concept of the actual brutality of war, so avoidance isn't their primary determining factor.
"War is politics through other means."
-Von Clauswitz
This is why we are where we are today. Put kings & warmongers back in the Vanguard and see how quickly things change.
