IMO, this isn't the cold war anymore. Accident nuclear hysteria is premised on incomplete survivable nuclear triad that pressures launch on warning. Many aren't aware, US nuclear posture has been launch on confirmation since Clinton. Meaning triad survivable enough that more prudent to verify nuclear explosion before assured retaliation than risk of accidental MAD. Which is just as well. We're entering era of global strike especially among US adversaries - CONUS will be increasingly vunerable to conventional strikes. Nuclear use matrix is going to start factoring in risk of 50 icbms likely targetting refineries or carries in port vs nuclear decapitation strike, i.e the entire Petrov saga where it's pretty obvious US wasn't going to start nuclear war with preemptive 5 missile strike. Basically what every US adversaries already calculates on the recieving end of US power projection using short/medium range ordnances that could all be nuclear tipped.
