What is, exactly, the reason that we must risk a war of mutual annihilation against a nuclear superpower?? Because Russia, Russia, Russia.

To answer your question directly, risk in itself is a difficult thing to quantify. Some view doing nothing and letting Putin conquer uninhibited from assistance as less risky, while others view the opposite. Let’s walk through both extremes. 1. We do nothing. He then invades Latvia next? Do we do something then? Then he invades Estonia. After all, the same “NATO on my border claim can be made”. He keeps going and wants Poland and Hungry back in the USSR fold. 2. We send US marines and air power in.Then Russian forces are decimated and the borders recreated with armed protection. He then launches chemical and nuclear weapons. I think both extremes carry high risk. So we need to thread the needle and try and end the conflict. Personally, I think Putin wants Ukraine so bad nothing short of defeat, or severely damaging his military, or an overthrow will stop him. I could be wrong. So we ratchet up the economic pain and hope super intelligent New Zealanders with IQ’s in the 170 range save us all and carry their plan to Odessa on one of their three sophisticated warships. Then Maurice can institute the universal pay for citizenship plan and we can put at end to military organizations planet wise. :)
