The problem with political officers and their ilk, is they are picked, trained and promoted for idealogy not military thinking.
Hell, even most professional infantry, cavalry and armour officers tend to fall into the thinking that "I call for arty, arty lands, i do my job" and rather fail to understand the complexities of the artilleryman's calling.
While this situation strikes me as a bit of black-and-white, west is good and east is bad thinking. I can easily imagine the artilleryman's suggestion being thrown out.
