Even though people will likely die in the future because of unexploded ordnance, more lives could be saved if Russia loses sooner because of cluster bombs.

The difference is that Ukraine will keep a detailed record of where these bombs will be used, thus helping to prevent many future casualties that would surely occur otherwise.
