I think many underestimate allies bombing campaign, which destroyed Germans industrial complex, oil industry and air forces (75% of aircraft were destroyed by allies, many on the airbases).

This is true, and not widely cited because the Allied bombing of civilian areas was horrific, dwarfing the suffering inflicted by the two atom bombs.

WWII was awful.
