How about Russia uses a battle field nuclear weapon, drops it on Ukrainian positions and then claims it is a false flag? What if Russia gets a battle field nuclear weapon and drops it on its own troops and claims its not a false flag. What if Russia gets a battle field nuclear weapon and gives it to the Houthis. Russia has numerous ways to escalate without nuclear weapons and with nuclear weapons.
Yes obviously if the Russians just start openly chucking nuclear weapons at Ukraine it would look bad, but that's probably not how they would play if they ever got to the stage where they thought they were really going to lose Crimea. My guess is what they would do is escalate it into a conventional conflict with NATA, at which point it becomes much more justifiable for Russia to use a nuclear weapon to bring people to their senses and force everyone to the peace table.
Is it possible that the directions of the war could dramatically reverse? Is it possible Ukraine could actually get back the land bridge, Crimea and the Donbas with out nuclear war or some terrible conventional conflict for NATO? Yes its possible. War and diplomacy are inherently unpredicatble. But its not a gamble any sane person should be pursuing.
People have talked about ground troops. What they don't seem to have considered is the posssiblity that if NATO was really on the verge of achieving an overwhelming and humiliating victory over Russia, that China would deploy ground troops.

Progressives lie scattered on Woke's highway, Diverse ghosts crowd the young child's fragile eggshell mind.
You also kinda have to solve how to edject that chaff from a dummy at hypersonic speeds without destroying the chaff itself. Which makes the whole system unreasonably expensive when the whole point of a dummy is to be cheap.
