That assumes that the West has the ability to dictate the outcome of the war, when we really don't. Once you accept that, then the current policies make more sense. Western countries want to support Ukraine and bog down Russia, but not at the expense of their own security. So they'll continue to send in arms where possible, but the US isn't going to give up half its artillery arsenal, which is probably what it'd take to put Ukraine on par with Russia.
