I mean let's put it this way. I have SEEN videos of Russian and Ukrainians squads fighting in a field akin to what we picture a generic WWII table looking like.
In 7 months Russia had fallen from a maximum advance to the City of Mykolaiv all the way to losing Kherson. The distance between Mykolaiv and Kerson is ~35 miles as the crow flies.
In 5 months the Central Powers had fallen from a maximum advance to the City of Amiens all the way to losing Albert which is ~20 miles as the crow flies.
I mean these are some of the fastest moving fronts in their respective wars, but the idea of a completely static frontline is a myth. If we had hour to hour accounts of where all the troops in WWI were at any given time the front lines even when they didn't leave an area would "jitter" as local battles push the frontline yards forward before getting pushed back, in repeated zero sum gains. It was never ALL two trenches shooting each-other until one ran out of ammo.
