You deserve all the snark for it and more. Especially because you seem to not see the fact that this isn't an isolated thing, that Russia does this on the regular and the fact that they struck for Kyiv the moment they started the war, already "showing the cards" - meaning they want all of Ukraine. Russia needs to fail, completely and utterly. Anything less will only embolden them further.
It's not a simple request, the same request was denied to the most influential elf in existence, three times. When Gimli asked for it while being humble, she gave him three at the same time. There was also huge stigma and conflict between the races, and the fact that he even tried / dared to ask was huge, and her giving it to him means dwarves and elves can work out their differences after all
It's funny that this is biology in 4th grade and half the people here are shocked
