    if our defense depends on the pomp and nonsense of these promotions, then our military has bigger problems than being vastly, profoundly over-funded.

      I mean, at that level the positions are legally bound to certain ranks, meaning that high-level, strategic positions that determine strategy are unable to be filled except on a temporary basis, which means that decision-making is more tenuous. The military is still a monster, and it’ll fulfill its functions as it normally does, and will for some time, but the longer this goes on, the more headless the military becomes.
