Though it's important to remember that French casualties during the Second War were disproportionately high. They lost a lot of soldiers attacking the Coalition on even ground, and pushed them back significantly. They could have kept going and eradicated the entire coalition, but refrained from doing so because they could achieve their goal (reclaiming the territories they see as theirs by right of conquest (the French, TIAF, and DI also sacrificed heavily during the Dominatus War)) without further bloodshed. Plus, there was the Imperium of War to contend with. Handing over the entirety of the inhabited arm of Mirus to War-Imperial occupation was an unacceptable solution.
