Let's make something crystal clear. Anyone claiming the "Battle of Hormuz" has been won citing nothing but flow data is acting in bad faith. Let's make something else crystal clear. The US cannot actually win the "Battle of Hormuz." There is no endgame that results in status quo ante bellum, a free and open waterway navigable by all without obstruction or interference. That ship has sailed, pun very much intended. Can the US restore 100% pre-war flow of ships and product? Yes, eventually. Will oil prices return to pre-war levels? Yes, eventually. But as long as Iran exists in its current form, it will always exert its newfound influence over the Strait. Meaning there will always be added risk and that added risk will always be reflected in the costs to operate in and around the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz. That is just unavoidable at this point. That is before we even begin to consider the cost in man, materiel, and money that went into this absurd conflict and the impact it will have on our ability to maintain readiness for future conflicts. American military support is the only reason export flows through the Strait have been revived to the current reduced levels and the military cannot continue these operations indefinitely. All infrastructure to sustain a permanent presence in the region is destroyed. The Navy, in particular, has been stretched as thin as it could possibly be just to maintain a blockade and air presence. Never mind bring ships anywhere near the Strait of Hormuz itself. Can the military outlast the rapidly devolving economic situation in Iran? Maybe. But at incalculable cost and Iran has spent the last 47 years being exposed to extensive economic pressure and in spite of all of this they're 31 weeks into a 4 week war and still putting the screws to shipping traffic while the US Navy moves its blockade line back out of fear of anti-ship missiles.
