I mean, of course. The alternative was that Germany takes all of Poland and gets to be more agressive against the allies. The Soviets taking half of Poland was a massive benefit for the allies.

Katyn or Rainiai or 1941 Deportations was a benefit to Allie’s too I guess :)

The dark truth is that probably, yes, it was a benefit to the Allies.

Half of europe being behind iron curtain is beneficial to allies too. Now West got plenty of cheap workforce... Today's China is great too in a sense :)

Looking at Poland army in exile, I bet if those people shot in Katyn were able to escape, that'd have helped allies more than decomposing bodies helped the local ecosystem.

soviets were not part of the allies at the start of the war...
