    I’m not sure what war you think one would be thinking about – I’ve only ever heard it used to refer to WW1.

      Their initial point was that the name “The Great War” aged like milk because WWII was bigger, not that any people thought it was good

        Ah, I see. Yeah, I had no idea that that’s what they were getting at because if something bigger came along, we could just call it “The Greater” X, lol
