>I think even at small company levels there was still a lot of give and take
That's true on the Western Front too, the speed at which the overall front lines are moving don't matter as much as you think for the individual groups.
>but I seem to recall that cavalry was still used right up until 1917 (and then again in the RCW)
That's false. Cavalry was used by some countries who were on the western front into WWII. The British were using Cavalry through-out the western front, it didn't stop in 1916 nor was it limited to the Western front.
Cavalry wasn't used by the Germans, only by the Russians and to a far lesser extent the Austro-Hungarians. Unless we want to start talking about the Balkan and Ottoman fronts as part of the Eastern Front. In which case I don't know... but the Russians and the Austrians weren't doing much pushing (at least not until Russia had fallen into a different war)
