Also, I'm sure Ukraine may let Nato/close ally monitor planned usage to make sure civilians are out of range.

That is not the problem. Clusterfucks are aimed at military positions. The problem is that nonexploding pieces will just lie around after the bombs went off (partially). The when the farmers move in to plow their fields, they run into the unexploded pieces, and kids find "interesting toys" left around, maybe years after the war.

Thanks for the info. Knowing that it's even less of a concern.

Usage can still be mitigated and various ways eg. recording usage and limiting areas.

Russia is already using a far worse version of the same technology so as far as this concern goes so it's not like this will change post war concerns and conditions much.

Russia is committing genocide and terrorism in Ukraine so concerns for future civilian security which you could mitigate in various ways are much less valued than the immediate and actual danger facing Ukrainians in occupied territories today.
