No they don’t.
Taking undefended open ground indicates nothing other than one can take undefended open ground.

On the other hand, Bahkmut about to fall.
Waiting for Bakhmut to fall is like waiting for Godot.
Interesting thought.
Bakhmut is in fact under attack and Russian ground forces have advanced into villages to the south along T0513. Russia is in fact throwing all it can at Bakhmut. Reports by foreign reporters are that the Russian artillery is intense and unrelenting
The Russian problem is that the ground forces somehow lack the strength to actually advance further and actually capture the town. So far, an intense, but in the long run, ineffective effort is seemingly stalled
So the conclusion is that the Russian commanders have the wherewith all to mount one attack at one point along an 800 km front. That attack is not able to take the town.
