You still don't get the point. Being that PTSD is so extreme for the present crop of RU reinforcements that it overwhelms the adrenaline and the preservation instinct triggered by being in an active warzone.
A combat soldier should not do this. Never even think of doing it, ideally.
Particularly when he forfeits the compensation payments to his widow and orphans by doing it.
To put some numbers on it, 1-3 weeks on the frontline destroys your will to live as badly as getting shat on for 5-10 years as a US veteran Stateside.
These are not vets that kill themselves in the recent vids; they are green cannon fodder.
An increasing number of these rank civvies Putin is throwing into his grinder cannot anymore be trusted to follow orders and fight, even if they are forced to assault at gunpoint, even if it means their families won't get their Lada/crate of fish/Ramadan lamb.
It is literally the same error the previous autocrat of Russia made in early 1917, or the Kaiser in midsummer 1918: trust that no surprise concentration of forces and materiel smashes open one section of your invincible wet-cardboard line that is advancing simply by sheer weight of numbers but at an unstoppably decreasing quality of your "Menschenmaterial".
