These military proceedings for monarchies are completely unnecessary, and can VERY EASILY be done in a way that doesn’t put people in danger. It’s not about that though, it’s about a show of force, showing your army that you own that you can command to do whatever you want, including standing to the point of fainting, and that’s supposed to be something to be proud of?
That situation is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT from any of the NECESSARY examples you listed. Examples that already have safety precautions in place that are reviewed and updated regularly based on current situations
If a bunch of men marching about in big hats, bright red tunics, decades old guns, as well as swords and on horses is what we do as a “show of force”, then we’re cooked if a war happens 💀
It can be both

So, yes, this is an example of the fallacy
