if methane is like 80 times worse than CO2 and millions of tonnes of methane is leaking out of Siberia would it be worthwhile - from a climate change perspective - to nuke Siberia and burn all that methane into CO2?

Yes, nuking siberia will stop global warming
you did it anon
you saved everybody.

At best, you get a fuckton of CO2 instead of a fuckton of methane. Still bad, and it's worth mentioning that methane has shorter atmospheric residence time in the atmosphere

If we want to end global warming we need to nuke not just Siberia, but all of Russia and Iran, and then we need to end all large scale cattle, dairy, poultry, and pork agriculture and switch to insect and onions-based diets. Anyone who disagrees is a far-right neonazi conspiracy theorist being funded by the Russians.

methane leaks are intentionally burned to reduce their impact, yes

It's a figure of speech. Destroys it enough where humans stay away from it and not work there.
