NATO exists at all because it was the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
How does Ukraine pretend to fit among North Atlantic Allies? What can it contribute to joint defense?? NOTHING! So why should the Allies jointly pledge themselves to war for the Ukraine?!?
NATO destroyed its purpose by letting every nation with a kitchen sink into it.
There is nothing special about NATO interoperability. Military weapons worldwide are built according to NATO standards or Russian standards. Take your pick. It is true that NATO winds up being a big customer base, but there are other vendors in that market. Sometimes they fight against each other (e.g., the Falklands War).
