This isn't about winning any particular battle, but to weaken Russia's awareness of the battlefields all over Ukraine. It's a slow-boiling long-term success.

Public morale and perception is as important. If Western public feels that results are not worth the money, they will demand or elect politicians who will withdraw support to Ukraine. American public perception is the major reason why US withdrew from Vietnam after all, in spite of body count that Pentagon touted. This is propaganda war as much as martial.
