Unfortunately while it could be the right decision, it’s probably impossible for legal reasons, would require lengthy domestic political process, possibly referendums.
A super fast process would be perhaps a year, even if the NATO end of that process would be one minute.
You’d almost wish there was a temporary membership that could be used e.g for 2 years while the politics is sorted, without delaying the security guarantee. If we vote no, we leave again. But imagine the amount of Russian meddling in a Swedish or Finnish NATO referendum…
