the etymology of "war" is what had in mind too.

But say, theoretically and totally hypothetically for example, it is possible to have war to determine which commercial establishments get defense funds, but that would not necessarily entail a dispute.....

True, but regardless of the -true- motivations of the war, it, by definition, has to have a dispute or conflict that the action ultimately attempts to resolve, even if the dispute/conflict is largely a pretextual one.

Or, modeling further upon the hypothesis you've offered, the war "makes clear" which commercial establishments get funds and which ones don't. After all, unless every single one out there gets funding via the war, there's necessarily an uncertainty made clear by the action. ;-)

Knowing you, the possibilities are endless.
