1. He indeed frames his argument as either/or and once you buy into that, then much of his rationale indeed follows.
2. Gian is right in that the Army is overwhelmed by COIN. Not by choice. We are simply too small not to have everyone engaged. Our PME is definitely not COIN-only, nor should it be. And our senior leadership is definitely not COIN only.
3. 3-24 is not a Boy Scout handbook and it does not say that kinetic operations are unimportant.
