Isn’t that because beforehand the city was surrounded and the population displaced. Then a lot of people who stayed behind were automatically counted as insurgents irregardless of why they stayed. And you also ignore the incredible destruction of civilian property during the course of the battle.

If you were a commander on the ground what would you have done to better achieve the objective?

Which is an extremely weak defense. The excuse any commander can use for raising cities, just gotta claim it was the only way to do it and hey presto.
