The point is more that even wars come down to economy.
All other things being equal, (s)he with the biggest economic breath has the biggest chance of winning
Where things get less equal is when you start destroying 25 million dollars of your opponent at the cost of 25 thousand for yourself.
This means, again all other things being equal, and assuming that you can continue making these kills, that your opponent needs an economy a thousand times larger than yours to be able to continue this in a sustainable way
This is in part also why Ukraine has been so successful against Russia, they found ways to cause millions of dollars worth of damage to Russia with relatively tiny budgets. Also, Ukraine’s focus is on crippling the Russian economy while Russia is still using the “let’s murder and terrorize their entire population” strategy from WWII which hasn’t worked out well for them
