And strictly speaking, while the war was all about slavery for the South, for the North it was much more complicated, to put it mildly.

It’s a bit akin to saying “the Soviets lost 20000000 lives to save the Jews”.

I don’t see any complexity here. The South started the Civil war because of slavery. That really does make the Civil War “all about slavery”, even though motives and stated war goals in the North changed over time.
