Still happened though

Still something else happened --not the original argument (that they bypassed it because it wasn't extended to Belgium).
The moral of the story is that, while the Maginot Line would have been a perfect defense in World War I, it was ineffective in World War II. People are always preparing to fight the last war. Very common mistake. A failure of imagination.
