The problem with autocrats is that they really are not governed by anyone else.
 
Serious question,

why?
 
Because that is his power. And he has advertised it.

What tactical/operational/strategic utility does detonating a nuclear weapon serve as this point?
 
That would be a bit of a trick considering Ukraine gave up all of their nukes in the 90s.
Hell Trump and at least half the GOP would go along with it.

It upsets the world order and gives Putin negotiating power he would otherwise not have. He has other nuclear weapons. They have no use unless he can use them as a threat.

He has 190,000 Russian troops in the area why in the hell would he use a nuke on them?
