The opposing side is close to victory on strategic points even after its fleet has been destroyed. A last attempt to seize another area comes too late to change the score. The fleet's destruction looks like success, while the scenario treats the stated objective as decisive. The game rule turns the moment into a compact planning lesson: tactical success matters only when it delivers the operation's actual victory conditions.

Destroying the enemy fleet still loses the battle on objective points
Eliminating the opposing fleet still ends in defeat because the scenario scores control of strategic areas, making the earlier argument about objectives decisive.
