I asked as a chance (a challenge even) to reframe an arbitrary situation.
Even the one you mention, at this exact moment, a win/win could be framed around the benefits of stopping the war. While it's entirely reasonable to pick a perspective that focuses on the awfulness that has occurred, looking ahead, a peace deal would benefit all sides. Certainly it's closer to win/win than continuing down the current path.
My point is that the perspective we take is a choice.
