I thought island forts were bad enough for peace deals with AI

Until I'm at war with Russia, and it has -1000 for "demanding without occupying any forts in area".

And this is the only fort Russia has left.

Russia be like: You did not occupy my fort on the other side of the world, so I won't cede you these provinces.

You can do it to them, also. Don't build forts, they can't demand anything on your primary mass without taking your capital first.

i suggest you siege that fort, take a province nearby, build a fort on it, and return it to russia so they cant trap you with that again

alternatively you take the fort and destroy it before returning, but they may build another far away, so...

thats one reason i dont split enemies unless im sure they got no money at all

This is why you prioritize taking Siberia first.

Bonus point: it costs no OE
