Ewell was never the same after his leg amputation. The Ewell from the Valley campaign takes Culp's Hill.

I think the psychological side to the war is something that is missed out on as well.

Stuart was never the same after taking over Jackson's command at Chancellorsville.

We know from correspondence from Stuart to his wife that the loss of life weighed heavily on him.

It is mere speculation, but it would explain why Stuart pressed so hard during the Gettysburg Campaign as an attempt to make up for that loss of life.
