...nah, it's a tennis reference and is more associated with negotiations than warfare. Your proposal, my response, your response and so forth and so on.

...a good saying about war is "No plan survives first contact with the enemy".

Re: “To begin with, the analogy is massively flawed: like there is a "ball" and one side can only "get ready" while the other prepares to "serve". And then it goes one side OR the other until one side "wins" and the other "loses".”
I think it's a basketball analogy, not a tennis analogy. In basketball, whoever has the ball isn't expected to promptly turn it over to the opponent. Quite the opposite. The team with the ball... particularly at the end... gets to formulate the strategy or strategies that decide the game.
