If you were to assess the problem over multiple iterations, wouldn't the original bargaining range have shifted so that both sides would have to give back points in time or the original range is blown? Thus, the original problem or range wouldn't have any resemblance over multiple iterations. One side would be winning and the other side losing. Much like Marxist theory of thesis, antithesis, synthesis. But if the synthesis moves in one direction it's never recoverable. Thx.

You're mis-understanding the graphical theory. One side gets it all during a war; partial amounts aren't given or taken away. This all-or-nothing is the model of war we're using (unless I've missed something vital). The ranges you see are the expected outcomes - the gain times time probability of winning.
