@nyrath@tkinias I think there has also been a cultural shift in the west on the view of nuclear weapons. They started out as just yet another destructive device and tool of war, but somewhere along the way turned into a moral outrage and obvious end of the world on any use at all (basically going from one extreme to the other). It was interesting reading the leaked Russian commanders conversations in Oct '22, clearly without the same moral outrage that westerners have.
