Does it seem odd at all that everyone is not just willing but eager to accept repeated claims of Russian responsibility for this or that, despite significant evidence for the repeated claims rarely being released? Even asking a question is essentially guaranteed to be met with at least downvotes, if not a stern lecture, despite there being no evidence.

Not particularly. It is no secret that Americans really don't like the Russian government, and there is precedence for APT groups associated with the Russian government attacking the US. I agree though that there is no publicly available data to support the assertion that Russia is responsible for this at this time. My earlier post was simply pointing out the low likelihood of an individual or independent group performing this attack. The high level of sophistication combined with their risky target selection suggests it is a nation state.
It does indeed suggest that it is a nation state - my problem is with the repeated (evidence-free) assertions that the nation state is(!) Russia - and also that hardly anyone seems to care about what is Actually True, on matters this dangerous.
