The only time they were used they led to an estimated

two million less deaths. Although it was probably not the bomb that actually ended the war.

But you should read history. The two bombs were not even close to the worst bombings in WWII. They were the worst single bomb, but for actual deaths in a city on a bombing mission they don't even make the top 20.

Why? If a nuclear bomb leads to less deaths and a faster resolution, do it

I'm not necessarily disagreeing or agreeing with you, but nukes today are MUCH

Hard to argue with that.
