Yes. Because it shows his willingness to use them as an offensive weapon rather than a deterrent.
How else would you expect the other global superpowers to react to that?
But that's the entire reason he won't. Too much to lose for zero net gain.

I think you're wrong.
We'd all get together in the UN to strongly deplore Putin's actions if he nuked a small town in Ukraine.

I suspect it will come down to those around him to refuse to launch.
We collectively have more to lose than a 70something, possibly ill, sociopathic and legitimately paranoid guy who is watching his dream slipping away.

Not a chance. Putin could nuke Kiev itself and that still wouldn't draw a nuclear response from NATO, because NATO wouldn't have been attacked.
They don't need to drop nukes. Look at what they did to Grozny for what the plan for Kiev probably is.

Plus the US is still two cities up on the rest of the world
when it comes to nuking them.
