I have no problems if anyone believes Iran 'won' the war.You are not wrong. Except, this does not necessarily mean it holds ultimate importance in every scenario and you are just probably overstating it's importance.
If anything, this conflict has demonstrated that even without a traditional air force, a war can still be fought, and tactical, operational and strategic victories can still be achieve on different terms. Despite all the flexibility the US possesses, it was still unable to strategically arm wrestle Iran. Which is why they are always considering to invade to establish some leverage.
Overwhelming air superiority might succeed against a militarily weaker nation, but limitations emerge when facing a country with massive strategic depth, rugged mountainous terrain, and capabilities (have to give credit where is due) to build extensive underground bases. They have utilised their natural advantages well and have at least leveled close to the playing field.
Iran has also shown that advanced jets and drones can be effectively nullified when cleverly countered with other tactical options, such as "SAMbushes" and loitering munitions.
This approach will likely serve as a template for other nations defending against adversaries with an overwhelming air force though some nations may not be blessed with the geographic advantages Iran has.
