Destroying the Ukrainian army and inducing their government into unconditional surrendering is by far and away the most humiliating outcome for the west and beneficial for Russia. If Russia had the capacity to do that in the next few months, I can't see any reason why they wouldn't as I don't think the prospects of blowing up a few Leopards and F-16s in the future is worth continuing a costly and destructive war.

It really isn't. Say tomorrow the Russians just annihilate the Ukrainian army and waltz into Kiev. Congratulations, you've won a decades long insurgency!
