It's also incredible how this discussion is entirely uninformed by the posted article. The reading presents several thoughtful explanations for the armor, along with reasons they don't quite make sense. Many comments here are from folks who clearly didn't read that but have Very Valuable Opinions to share. As if being a software engineer also makes you an expert in military armor.

It is paywalled.

Yes, but the Economist paywall is quite generous. Also the top link here is an archive link to circumvent the paywall. Also extensions like Bypass Paywalls Clean work if for some reason you don't want to pay for the journalism you read.
The alternative we have here is a completely uninformed, speculative discussion.

If you're talking about my other comments, they were paraphrasing similar articles I've read, rather than pure speculation. Keeping in mind that that any article is going to have speculation, as the Russians haven't said why they are doing it.
That "generous paywall" is showing me ~120 words.
