Fucking finally.

Russia: Nooo this is a huge mistake, it will surely be terrible for Ukraine!

This will be huge on the Ukrainian front, because it means they can now rapid strike deep into enemy territory.

there will be more missiles

Because the ATACMS come in different flavors of how do you want to fuck with your enemy. Depending if someone is going to fight personnel or armor.

no, not really, your options is small cluster warhead with longer range or 3x bigger cluster warhead with less range (the one used in berdyansk), neither of which are effective against armour, and then there's unitary variant, which would require direct or almost direct hit. so no, it's only good against soft targets: aircraft on runways (not in hardened hangars or such), SAM sites, ammo depots, radar installations, unarmoured vehicles, troops in the open and so on. unitary variant might be good against command centers

that's still a lot of valuable targets

Anything that makes Russia remove invading forces/equipment out of Ukrainian territory is the right move.
