For McChuck and thank you.

Makes sense. Unity of command.

Just as there can only be one king, and army may only have a single commander. Command, by its very nature, rests upon a single head. Two commanders will constantly butt heads, confusing the troops and adding to the natural chaos of war. They often end up fighting each other more than the enemy. Even if they have the best of intentions, two commanders will inadvertently misdirect each others’ troops and interfere with each others’ plans.

Maybe bad translation. But i think it means it is better to have 1 good and 1 bad than 2 good to be able to choose.

“I believe it would be better to have one bad general than to have two good ones.”

Someone explain this to me.
