I think I'll refuse to compare Pearl Harbour or World War 2 to the 'code war'.
I don't think anyone in western sydney have suddenly abandoned NRL or Union as the Giants appeared there. As well as this soccer fans will hopefully follow the new team there and I doubt you'll see a dip in any other code numbers. It's not even close to being a frontline.
I started playing golf two years ago and realised I was rubbish but still enjoyed it. Have tried Union, AFL and still play soccer. I agree entirely that the articles are quite boring, but no-one seems to be arguing against the code wars actually existing.
