Most likely done by design to try to undermine Trump and his incoming team
The Obama Administration did similar things with Russia after the Trump victory in 2016. Back then it was a bunch of sanctions and such that were put into place because the Democrats insisted that Putin was behind the Trump win. If we recall, that led to Special Counsel charging General Flynn with misleading the FBI, when the FBI came to visit to see if Flynn was talking to Russia about these sanctions. There seems to be a special idea that outgoing Democratic administrations can push their last minute ideas onto the incoming Trump administration, especially when those ideas are in direct conflict with what Trump is likely to do.
Now why did this outgoing administration decide to change war strategy when they would not have to deal with any of the fallout? Precisely because they did not have to deal with any of the fallout. But now you have Putin threatening that the war might be going global specifically because of these weapons and the fact that the US and Great Britain seemingly encouraged Ukraine to use them.
The reality here... is that I do not believe that this was actually Joe Biden's decision. I don't believe that Biden is making any decisions, much less decisions that affect the world stage. But there is someone down the line who wants to cause issues and make it harder for the Trump administration to deal with Russia (which is likely a day one sort of deal). The first thing I might do if I was involved was find out who made this decision and make sure they are no longer able to make any decisions affecting anything.

While the Pentagon refused to send resources to assist my officers at the Capitol, they sent resources to secure military officials’ homes that weren’t even under attack. Unbelievable!

Treason, you say?
Court martial, you say?

There are literally thousands who need to be arrested, indicted, tried, convicted and executed.
like the court martial idea from Afghanistan. Bringing people back from retirement to charge them with treason!

Same here.
The question is -
"How would I make sure they are no longer able to make any decisions affecting anything?"
I have an idea...
