    It really wouldn't be a bad thing for the Germans living in those areas. Germany has been ruthlessly carved up so much that the idea of a German state is pretty meaningless as things stand anyway; they wouldn't exactly be betraying their ancestors or anything. No-brainer.

    I remember watching French and Swiss fighter planes playing games with each other not far from the Swiss border when I was on my way out of Switzerland, all good natured I’m sure but excellent practise.

    This plan gets the Swiss Tony seal of approval:

    I believe that legends and myth are largely made of
    “truth”, and indeed present aspects of it that can only be received in this mode; and long ago certain truths and modes of this kind were discovered and must always reappear.

    J.R.R. Tolkien

    Indeed it might be a basic characteristic of existence that those who would know it completely would perish, in which case the strength of a spirit should be measured according to how much of the “truth” one could still barely endure-or to put it more clearly, to what degree one would require it to be thinned down, shrouded, sweetened, blunted, falsified.
    Nietzsche

    To God everything is beautiful, good, and just; humans, however, think some things are unjust and others just.
    Heraclitus
