12k dead Kaliningrad troops would make it hard for Putin to stop a revolt there. https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2022/10/27/12000-russian-troops-once-posed-a-threat-from-inside-nato-then-they-went-to-ukraine-to-die/?sh=6c480d473375

Yeah but he also probably wouldn't care. The citizens of Kaliningrad are unlikely to want to leave the Russian federation and Putin wouldn't care about unrest in the provinces. The only revolt he worries about is one in Moskva or St Petersburg.
