Putin was holding back the entire time
-
the only rational explanation for his restraint was that he wanted to minimize civilian casualties and damage to critical infrastructure
-
this desire to minimize collateral damage makes Putin a better man than all of the Western commanders who indiscriminately carpet bombed their enemies in virtually every major conflict since WW2

The bombings were a smart play for two reasons
Payback for the Crimean Bridge bombing and it shows the Ukranian government that the Russians outmatch them and hitting Kiev puts pressure on the government to the table from the civilians for a peace
It is bait from Putin to NATO to give Russia pointless sanctions that barely affect Russia if at all and continues to hurt NATO especially if Russia further restricts gas
