You have made a very high effort post that lists exactly what Russian MoD wants the West to be thinking right now. Now consider the other possibility, that Prigozhin is working hand in hand with MoD to create MILDEC tension they can use to do things like catch Ukrainian infiltrators and justify tighter control they need to counter something the actual enemy is sending their way.
Yes, this is not that far fetched either.
I was listening to Col. Macgregor yesterday talking about some of the Russian tactics they have been using. Recently, the Russians set up a fake missile battery with lots of explosives for UKR to target. When they hit it, there was a huge explosion. This convinced the UKR troops they were on target and for all nearby artillery to open up on the position.
In reality, the ploy was for UKR to give up their artillery positions, which RUS quickly took out.
