Splitting the allied shinobi forces into groups depending on the talents was a good idea.

But sending only range specialist on one battlefront and all the close combatants on the other was just plain stupid.

Rather than splitting each group up into smaller teams that are able to balance out each other's weaknesses, they just ended up creating a full military body or people who share the same weakness and thus in reality would be easy to beat.

But I understand what you mean and agree. The concept itself is sound, it's just the was Naruto's author used it, that I hate.
