Is WWI a fair bit silly?
Austria went to war to keep its serbian part of the empire.
Serbia went to war to gain bosnian land under Austria's control.
in 2024, Austria no longer have its empire.
Serbia does not have the bosnia either.
In the end neither got what they wanted, and all those dead men...

its about hindsight.what the contemporary people of the time went to war for. the serbians fought for independence against Austria hungary and ottoman rule which is what had occurred . the archduke franz feridand is what triggered the war and you know the story. point being the Austrians saw this as a chance to claim terrority as you mentioned but also crush the nationalism of the slavic people in the region in the form of serbia and be able to claim the former Ottoman territories. point being it served the interests of the leaders, in gaining land, a larger economy, and stability.
some may also argue that ww1 was inevitable as well.
in the end to answer your question 90% of wars are silly
