Right. And the game itself becomes tedious because you can't delegate responsibilities. Commanding a stack or two of troops is fun. Commanding 10 stacks (possibly on 3 fronts) where the greatest danger is 2 stacks ending up on a random low-development province together and losing thousands of soldiers to attrition is booooring. Same with a fleet of ships vs. several fleets that require micromanagement to avoid attrition on intercontinental voyages.
A better game would make you share responsibilities with intelligent AI - which would both save on tedious micro and lead to frequent entropy, as a region that doesn't need you and can defend itself can tell you to fuck off.
