Which statement best explains why the term proxy war is useful for Angola and Vietnam but incomplete by itself?

It captures superpower involvement but can understate local nationalist goals, factional rivalries, and decolonization contexts.
C
It is useful mainly because both conflicts were fought largely in Europe.
D
It means local actors had no interests and were legally controlled by the United Nations.
