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.

But ground engagements didn't work on a 1:1 ratio of troops. In canon, when it comes to ground fighting versus space fighting the UNSC tends to have the upper hand.
