USSR didn't exist in 1920 either, it was established in 1922.

True, but when you use the optics "it is no man's land, let's take it while we can", why only in the case of 1919-1921, but not in the 1939 case?

When Soviets crossed Polish borders in 1939, the Polish statehood was exactly in the same defunct state as the Soviet in 1919-21.

Polish borders as of 1918 are here - https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historia_Polski_(1918%E2%80%93...

Soviet Union decided to attack, it lost the war, it had to ceede territory.

Poles didn't cross the Soviet border in 1919.
