Spilling the conflict into Moldava seems completly stupid, but using the small Russian forces in Transnistria to attack Ukraine is a suicide. No option makes any kind of sense, there is no scenario for the Transnistrian garrison to survive. Maybe they want to declare Transnistria as part of Russia? But they would be completly cut and isolated, worse than Kaliningrad.
The only thing that makes sense is trying to tie some Ukranian forces in the border with Transnistria.
