Ukraine will cede the 4 oblasts and will likely be neutral to NATO at the end of the war, crippled and battered, vs the same results without the devastation of years of conflict had they surrendered months in when they had the chance. Ukraine has taken far less civilian casualties than they've claimed, and has dealt far more than they've claimed. Russia isn't some evil empire of villians, it's a country at war. It isn't Israel.
I do agree that pasting tons of sources isn't going to do anything, that was the reason I posted so many (though you can feel free to check them, as I've already done for your sources). I do think it's funny that my sources are largely things like bbc and OHCR, just presenting a narrative that concedes basic material reality.
