Who REALLY won the war in space?

The more I think about it the more I start to tell myself that the UNSC, and not the Covenant, won the war in space in the end. Yes I know it took three or four UNSC ships to destroy one Covenant ship, but overall I still think the UNSC had many major wins. The Unyielding Elephant, destruction of High Charity, the gas planet Admiral Cole nuked to cook the Covenant fleet in orbit, etc.... I really can't remember a time when the UNSC lost at least 150 ships or more in a single battle.... So overall, even though the Covenant won almost every engagement, when you add in Unyielding Elephant(500+ ships), High Charity (1000+ ships) and the fleet destroyed near the gas planet (300 ships) it looks like the covies lost a lot more in space than Humanity did. Discuss.

[/quote] Remember us trying to figure how how they recharged their guns in halo 2? It sucks that the covenant members have to remember how much ammo they have since they can't just unload and count. If a gun runs out of bullets on the field you ask or scavage for more. If your plasma weapon runs out of charge (it seems) that you just drop it and try finding a new one hoping it isn't used up. Very dangerous and inefficient.[/quote] The UNSC were all-around [i]better[/i] in ground conflicts.
