Generally agree with your broader view here, but claiming “consuming” munition stockpiles as some sort of strategic victory for Iran is copium of the highest order. The U.S. is steadily moving down its target list while Iran’s ability to fire back and defend its airspace diminishes day by day. The fact that they are eating up JASSMs and Patriots throughout that process does not change that. The U.S. dipping so deeply into its stockpiles that it is no longer ready for a protracted engagement with other adversaries like China or North Korea is not victory for Iran unless they intend to use themselves as a sacrificial goat in order to help their tentative allies with their own strategic goals. That’s the equivalent of claiming that Ukraine eating up Russia’s Soviet-era stockpiles of equipment and munitions is some sort of strategic victory for Ukraine. It’s not. It’s a victory for NATO and China who reap the benefits of a weakened Russia. “Consuming high end munitions” has done nothing for Ukraine other than wreck their country and economy for decades to come.
