      There is no benefit for anyone nuking anyone. Nukes are a negative sum game. Use them and everybody loses.

      As long as they maintain thousands of mated warheads and the related delivery systems, deterrence is relevant.

      The fact that they are fucking themselves up in other ways makes it more relevant, not less.
