I didn’t think through carefully what I mean by ‘density’ other than to say: I mean ‘# of chokepoints the defender needs to defend, in a typical stretch of frontline’ So, number of edges in the network (per sq km) sounds like a reasonable proxy for what I mean by density at least.
I also have zero hours of combat experience haha. I agree this is untested conjecture & that reality is likely to contain unexpected-by-me surprises that will make my toy model inaccurate or at least incomplete.
OK, nice.
