[Toy Soldier]

The only types of war that we will ever engage in, ever again, are ones that are scrappy and complex like the war against ISIS, or a potential final blowout between big nations. That's it. If it's the latter, it won't matter what we do or don't have. If it's the former, nuclear weapons will be completely useless. It's a type of war that has to be fought intelligently and with precision. Scalpels, not hammers.

There seems to be some argument of "but what if in future...". Well, in future nothing. Either it kicks off on a nuclear scale and we all die, or it doesn't kick off at all and we don't need them. The deciding factor in this is M.A.D. Tens of thousands of warheads. We are not part of that, our nuclear capability is completely irrelevant in that context.
