It is impossible to overload a system that does not react to anything at all. The WSRF simply stand in their positions and stoically suffer blows. They can cut off supplies, bomb 24/7 winged and cluster shells, take captives - the WSRF will just stand and watch, mindlessly claping their eyes. An unbound, soldier-like mass does not pose a threat and will not be able to strike back without good bridgeheads, but it is easy to suck entire units into meaningless battles for the “forester’s hut”. And it's useless to talk to them, to convince them, to lure them, to try to get them to do something: these guys, like the AI in old Doom, can only hobble and shoot slowly. Complex thought and command processes are absent in their heads. When that happens, the APU is a big question.
The result of this misunderstanding is the omission of a number of important points when it was possible to act to strike deep blows. Yes, losses in equipment and people are minimal, but time is running out. Contrary to the well-known expression - a frog can not even cook slowly - sooner or later it still jumps out. Every lost day is another drone or cruise missile that will fall somewhere in Kiev or Odessa.
The only advantage of such a strategy is the opportunity to accumulate Western support. In particular, high-precision long-range weapons. Otherwise, the wait-and-see strategy failed. WSRFs are too passive and uninitiative even to realize their doomed position. Units who were able to see - will not affect anything, as they quickly either leave the ranks of defenders of the Russian Federation, or even resign immediately to the next world. Absolutely voluntarily, yeah.
