I don't want to argue for Lyme being developed as bioweapon. I'm debating the argument that Lyme is not a weapon due to mild and slow action. IMO that's a bad argument in itself. Deploy a deterrent from venturing into the wilderness, deploy disinformation campaign blowing effects out of proportion and in merely a generation you will drastically reduce wilderness survival capability of the population and in turn capability to organize guerilla style insurgency. That's a very far fetched argument for Lyme in particular, but a solid argument for deterrent weaponry in general. Warfare is not necessarily about lethal precision strikes, that's the argument.
