Sorry, I don't mean to say that it killed more people in every case. I agree there are could be cases where the outcome was certain, and maintaining strength for gorilla resistance and saving population centers was likely prudent.

I was primarily referring to appeasement, where countries in Europe, mostly England, gave the Nazis land to avoid war.
