Mini-Normandy or Inchon?

I had thought the place for a mini-Normandy was the Kinburn Spit. That would be the hardest place to defend against such an amphibious landing. If the Ukies can get air superiority locally, it would be a game changer. The idea here is use the Oleshky Sands mini-desert to the advantage of the Ukies, since there is no cover there for Russian artillery. The Ukies have been making the Ruskies play Whack-a-mole. If they defend Krynky by massing forces there, the Ukies will just cross the river and establish a bridge head elsewhere. They are using drones to supply the troops on the East bank of the Dnieper mostly. So far, it's working.
