What is a success so qualified that it counts as the opposite?
One type of success that fits this description is called a "Pyrrhic victory" (usually capitalized) that refers to the war by Pyrrhus, king of Epirus, against the Romans, circa 280 BC. His victories cost him so many irreplaceable troops that it was practically a defeat.A Pyrrhic victory is one that comes at too great a cost, or one that leads to later defeat or failure. As an example, the Japanese effort against the US at the Battle of the Coral Sea is referred to as a "tactical victory and strategic defeat" because it cost them an irreplaceable aircraft carrier and the use of two more. It also prevented an invasion that they desperately needed to succeed.
