Russian Federation is not the USSR, unfortunately. Capitalism, remember? The mayor of Novaya Kahovka had reportedly said it’s beyond repair. And frankly I am not sure the government is willing to rebuild it at all.
Of course, you correct in pretty much everything you say. Though one can hope that under peacetime conditions an effort could be made to rebuild the dam, especially due to its importance to the local nuclear power plants and fresh water system for Crimea.
Well sometimes there is a will, they rebuild Mariupol very quickly and this is arguably much more important because water to Crimea. Though also much more expensive and no chance to do it when nazis can blow it anytime again.
