Agreed. Though that was a century ago & with different governments, as you pointed out elsewhere. Also no nukes; presumably nukes make escalation less likely than it was then (I didn’t realize this until now when I just read the wiki—apparently the Allies almost declared war on the soviet union due to the invasion of finland!).
(As an aside, I think that the invasion of Finland is actually a great reference point)
