Agree. But some people will see lack of weapons as weakness to exploit. It's easier and higher ROI for 1 to arm, while rest disarm, than for all to remain disarmed, so it will happen. Making the current undesirable state where we have this fantasy of nuclear slugfest, paradoxically more stable.
But yeah, in a sense it's like we're storing AN in a warehouse beside a city. Seemingly stable, but bad if not. Unless we're not storing AN, but just sawdust. But who knows really?
an even more stable situation would be to have every country convinced they have a mutually assured destruction but then for there to be some higher power that can prevent that. so we don't start a war because we believe mad is true but even if we do there's a fallback. but who knows?
