Speculations The Psychology of a Squirrel and Why Ragnir Won't Be Wielded by Usopp

[Impact]

Ragnir Can Move By Itself
It doesn't need Usopp to move it. In this sense, Usopp doesn't bring anything to the table except that he can direct it. Usopp directing it is clumsy because he has to have an elaborate setup.

It Won't Get Smaller Conveniently
Not only would this be unheard of, but if it could get smaller then why can't it get bigger? Besides, if it could get smaller then Hajrudin would be able to wield it and Loki said it was impossible for anyone else to even lift it.

Fierce Loyalty to the Owner
Devil fruit objects/weapons don't switch owners, and only make temporary alliances when their owner has betrayed their trust with the singular goal of regaining their trust.

Loki Inherited the Will of the War God of Elbaf
Ratatoskr wasn't waiting for just anybody to find the treasure. It was waiting for the will of the War God of Elbaf to reappear. Usopp doesn't have that.

Fight/Flight/Freeze
Instincts do apply. They either fight or freeze based on if they trust the owner and if they're scared. They rarely choose flight.

Mistreated Weapons/Objects
A mistreated weapon or object might refuse to transform at a crucial moment, remain stuck in its heavier animal form to slow the owner down, or purposely miss a shot (in the case of projectile weapons like Lassoo).

Conclusion
The only time an object/weapon would join someone else is under that same circumstance: a threat or betrayal to the foundation of the relationship with the owner. If that doesn't happen, the object/weapon can usually attack by itself and will go down with the ship. If the owner perishes in battle, the object/weapon often dies too trying to save the owner out of fierce loyalty.

You see, I think that's humanizing Ratatoskr. Why would a wildlife creature like him care about inspiring the inhabitants of Elbaf?

It was an animal. It operated on base instincts. It was just waiting for its owner to return, it doesn't care about the state of Elbaf.

Well, Ratatoskr holds a grudge from when the War God died (the owner).

That's why I'm saying he was waiting specifically for someone who has the will of the War God. It's really specific to Loki.

I think it's important to note that Ratatoskr is an animal first and foremost. If we forget that, then things like Ratatoskr making complex plans over 800 years comes into play. I think it's much simpler and he's just a very loyal pet. I mean, it's a War God's pet, of course it would be.

It can't get smaller, but i can get lighter i would say..

To move '' by itself '' Ragnir still needs a wielder..

Ragnir is not an Animal, it's a weapon animal.. The Hammer eating Ratatoskr didn't give more willpower to the Devil Fruit, it gave more willpower to the Hammer..

I don't think Loki inheriting the will of the God of War is a major factor as to why Ragnir chose him.. It just had to be faced by a powerful Hammer user.. Even that, was just to get Nidhogg though.. What if the God of War at the time let his friend wield Ragnir for a while and that friend had a Chestnut shaped head?.. Like if Oda wants Usopp to wield Ragnir, it can happen easily.. I guess Usopp would need CoC though..

The hammer didn't have a mind. The mind guiding the hammer is a squirrel's mind.

I don't know about it getting lighter, it's more like Ratatoskr uses its will to make it move.

Where it concerns moving on its own, I'm not sure what it would do if it was separated from Loki. It might just refuse to be used by anyone else.

Solution to everything, Ragnir gets destroyed and Usopps hammer gets it

It's still super specific to Loki. That thing died, turned itself into a fruit, and waited for him.

It's more likely Usopp would get killed by his hammer if that happened lol

Actually, what's more likely is it would turn into a fruit again and become separate from hammers. It would just go back into circulation in a way where it would find another guy like Loki.

It’ll look for someone willing to fight Imu, which Usopp hilariously qualifies for

Onimaru's Long Term Plans
After the death of his master, he joined forces with Kawamatsu in collecting weapons for the final battle against Kaidou and protecting them from robbers. After Kawamatsu was captured, Onimaru posed as a human known as Gyukimaru on Oihagi Bridge, stealing weapons from people while continuing to guard the graves.

This is a case where a mythical animal actually did make a plan and act on it after the death of its owner. However, he was the user of the Human-Human Fruit Model Onyudo (Big Monk), so it is likely the humanized aspect of him that did that. Although, it is true that animals say things often and Chopper interprets it for them. They don't usually have long term (complex) plans.

Active Protection
Surume (the Kraken), despite being an animal, showed a high level of intelligence because it was knowingly working for Hody Jones under threat. Its family was being held hostage, and Luffy convinced it that he would save him. In this case, he was not a true pet, and was acting more like a wild animal being tamed.

I don't think Loki will die. It would be too tragic if both Harald and Loki gets wiped out like Roger and Ace.

Did Usopp not try and fight Imu?
