Russia now has to move men and resources out of Ukraine to defend against this attack and defend the rest of their border. Now they can grind their men against Ukrainian defenses on Russian territory instead of Ukrainian.

Danish navy officer and war analyst Puck Nielsen made such arguments as well.
It is basically agreed upon that the path to victory for Ukraine runs through attiring the Russian forces. Well, as long as Russians are attacking they will suffer tremendous losses like they do now.
But also, they slowly gain territory that you will need to take back to win the war. So it is not ideal to attire Russia in your own territory, why not invade and force Russia to attack your lines in their territory? Then you can completely treat the land as tradable and you will not need to recapture it, and you will still attire Russia, and you show competence… Good deal for Ukraine.

I think Russia will be pretty quick to move nukes away from Ukrainian advances, so it's a pretty unlikely scenario.
I imagine if they *did* capture some, they'd be used as a bargaining chip for negotiations. The political embarrassment of losing nukes, combined with the risk of nuclear escalation would put a lot of pressure on Russia to end the war quickly.

I understand that and am not suggesting Ukraine use the nukes at all.
It's just fascinating to me that we could be in a situation where a former user satellite state has control over a nuke. They may not have the capability or desire to use it... But it's not that unlikely that Ukraine could occupy the land that holds one or more nukes.
This is more a observation and less a strategic conversation.
Imagine if the US lost control over territory with a nuke. We'd consider that a massive failure even if the nuke had safeguards in place that prevented unsanctioned use.

To be fair the Nazis had the advantage that the early war allies managed the monumental task of being less competent then the Nazis.

No. He is the ultimate paper tiger. If the Russian “three days to Kyiv” had actually succeeded, Belarus would have entered right as most of the key cities were taken.

Just thinking about it. Maybe he isn't. Could just be fear. If he would have regrouped personal meant for the offensive, and it eventually turned out to be a nothingburger, Putin would have been furious. In an enviroment like this no one wants to make a tough decisions, because nobody dares to make a wrong one. It's a lot easier to justify inaction than justifying a wrong move.
So it doesn't matter if Gerassimov is capable or not, since the problem is systemic and it doesnt matter who is in charge.

Their army is even worse than the Russian and has been thoroughly plundered for equipment by the Russians since the war has started.

Not Russia. Our (Finnish) border actually has never been as empty as it is now after we joined NATO. They have pretty much only skeleton crews left at the garrisons at our border that used to be full of troops.
They all went to Ukraine and pretty much died. Some Finnish news agencies tried to follow some of the movements and many of the troops that got moved from our border got pretty much annihilated in Ukraine.

The Belarusian Army, which hasn't seen action in the entire time its been a country. No shot has ever been fired in anger by the Belarusian Armed Forces. They would be absolutely annihilated by Ukraine's forces, and they all know it. Also, estimated 90% of the population hates their government. With the army gone, Lukashenko is fucked, and he knows it. They won't do shit.
