You're going to be limited by military logistics. Things moving at certain speeds across the Earth. An algorithm can't change that until we get to AGI (maybe). I'm sure it can remove some human inefficiencies in organization, but there is a minimum time and you still need an overall goal like deciding to attack Russia.
But besides that, the formations don't really matter. All country vs country warfare is based on long range, fast moving weaponry. Something like MOAB will incinerate the entire formation.
To me it feels like military people trying to find a brand for this particular thing and to justify programs for it by inventing a need.
Even then, for the US, these small gains just don't matter because of our overwhelming might.
