Well, yeah, stabbing people would have been verily wiser (admittedly, my government stabs people because it can't afford novichok or polonium or any other fancy crap, not because it's wise)

my intuition was they use fancy murder methods to credibly demonstrate their complicity "if you betray us we will absolutely kill you and you can be sure it was us"

that seems right, it works as a credible signal that they absolutely do not give a fuck and will mobilize not just random deniable mafioso but the entire security state to merk you wherever you are
