I think part of our disagreement in the assessment of whether conventional military means are enough to default Russia. I think giving Ukraine 5x the weapons and permission to use them on any non-nuclear military (industrial complex) target should do the trick. This is also what actual military experts like ISW advocate for.

We also asses the risk of nuclear war differently. I suppose you like caves anyway :-)

And then there's issue of how Ukraine needs to behave in order to keep receiving support at all. If they start behaving as badly as the Russians, the EU stops supporting them. Unlike in the US, there is strong popular support amongst Europeans to help Ukraine, but it's not unconditional.
