Some points
Two of your points can be immediately refuted.
a) 1940-1944. The Allied air forces were supporting fighting on the ground in Greece, Crete, North Africa, the Middle East, East Africa and Italy during this period, not to mention the Far East and Pacific. Not in such numbers as on the Eastern Front perhaps, but at much greater logistic cost. Nor is there any Russian equivalent to the Atlantic campaign at sea, or the massive drain on resources to supply Russia via Lease-Lend. Just casually excluding all this effort is a cheap debating point of little value. b) The Allies never lost some of its most important industrial areas and mine regions, together with millions of manpower? France.
