it may be somewhat inconsistent. but would you rather have every crazy fuck in the world deploying nuclear devices wherever, whenever they pleased?
another thing to take note of is that _nobody_ knew the true power or afteraffects of nuclear war when the first bomb was dropped. this, is the lesson. at one point, with the technology developed, it's use was eventually imminent. i don't like the outcome, but glad it was used to end a war, not propogate one.
