I am describing the use case of using a wrecking ball when a sledgehammer would do, while your example is of using a sledgehammer when a wrecking ball is needed. Nobody is suggesting the use of a decades-old aircraft against a modern air power. But when you already have air superiority, it is better to use dedicated aircraft like the Super Tucano, as you mentioned. My emphasis is not to bring back the A-10, but to remember the effectiveness of that style of fighter and why it has a place on the modern battlefield, especially when the enemy is in inaccessible terrain and they lack the resources to achieve air superiority.
