Reading that essay, and from the evidence on the ground in Ukraine, it looks like the only cost-effective ground vehicles in contested areas might be light trucks/"technicals" - if it costs more than five digits, the manpad to blow it up is going to be as or less expensive and the infantryman humping that along on his shoulder is harder to find to strike back. Even more so if they can use a little quadcopter to spot for even lighter and cheaper mortar shells from behind cover.
