This is a lesson in never knowing the reach of ideas. The caltrop was simple and effective, but it's damage, while lethal, was limited in time and easily removed once peace had come. All you had to do was slowly walk the fields where they were planted, and pick them up in perfect safety.
But now, hidden, long lived symbols of death carry on their bloody purpose, long after the clamor of battle has passed. Would the Romans have cared the road they started the world on Likely not.
And what paths are we now choosing with AI and drone technology, that may evolve beyond our wildest guesses Will future wars generate abandoned satellites to somehow be triggered to rain down the fabled death ray on sundry locations Will a slightly off course Martian-Earth bus line be blown away by dark magnetic mines
We have no need to fear alien contact. I find it hard to believe that any other evolutionary path could have led to sentient beings of such a never-ending circle of violence and cruelty on a global scale.

Sorry to tell you this, but ambush attacks existed way before the people in WWII were even born or thought of. Like over a thousand years before. So this title is nothing but misinformation.
