Tactical nukes won't give much military help in this sort of war, so a autocrat like Putin may think that if kiloton level nuclear bombs don't work then, since the 77 year old taboo against nuclear weapons had already been broken then try the strategic megaton variety. It wouldn't be a smart thing for Putin to do but then it wasn't a smart thing for him to invade Ukraine in the first place, so that's why I think the world is closer to the nuclear war that it's been since the 1962 Cuban missile crisis.
