I’d say a lot of Jackson’s choices were centered on dramatic effect more than military accuracy. The Battle of Helm’s Deep in the book is extremely short, for instance, but it had to be a centerpiece of the film. That doesn’t excuse every dumb decision though, like Theoden deciding to take the civilians of Edoras…

I like your post for two reasons.
