I agree with your points, and yes it's a better perspective, however, that's not the world we're living in. There are some who are hell bent on wiping out continents of people due to any number of reasons ranging from beliefs to the exploitation of natural resources merely for financial gain. I really wish we did live in a world where the word "nuclear" invoked thoughts of clean(er), abundant and cheaper energy vs it invoking dread at the prospect of total annihilation.
