A) The word "cooperation" is doing so much work here I'm filing an NLRB complaint on it's behalf, and
B) So you just pretend the cooperation between France, England, America, Romania, Poland, Japan, Italy, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Hungary, Finland, Denmark and Germany both didn't happen and had no bearing of the decision of an encircled USSR to protect itself after the west spent years throwing them to the wolves?
"Are you just ignoring this one temporary alliance based on political necessity that only occured because of strategic triangulation by every other country in the west? I am very smart. Also Stalin should have let Hitler have all of Poland so he could murder 12 million Poles instead of just 6 million".
You mean trade between powers that shared a boarder at the time as well as a tentative peace treaty? The Soviets were absolutely not supporting the Nazi regime and their only mistake was not immediately arming German communists and promoting revolution after the Reichstag Fire.
But even then, the good relations the NSDAP shared with British and American industrialists would have likely seen that leading to the war starting with the West forming a coalition against the Soviets which the USSR absolutely was not prepared for.
Also the Soviet/German treaties were some of the last to be written, the western nations also signed non-aggression pacts with Nazi Germany.

Yeah, definitely better to have the Nazis controlling all of Poland.
