I would love to see more men get their wives back. However, getting her back takes everything you've got. All the strength, resilience, courage, self control and gamesmanship you can imagine and more.
But, but, but, but...it's not a game. Utter BS. Of course it is.
And you just proved it.
But I depart from your comment in a few ways.
Doing it to just be a D!ck won't work or be healthy in the long run. You've just replaced a broken dynamic with a new broken dynamic.
Doing it to "show" her or for "revenges" is also not healthy.
Doing it because you read it NMMNG, same.
Doing it because you respect yourself, respect your relationships, respect your SO. Is healthy.
I would also submit that 99% of them did try other things first.
Lastly, this may get your W back, but it's really no way to have a marriage. IMO.
