You're bagging on Napoleon without acknowledging that at Waterloo he didn't have any air cover. Had he been able to have a coordinated air campaign, the results might well have been different.

Which is my way of saying, "it was what it was." Which I guess is a form of agreement with what your saying, although I have nothing whatsoever invested in the topic. People want to say Lee was the best general of the Civil War. Crazy argument. Just crazy.
