Thinking about it makes me kinda doubt the mental stability of the people greenlighting such creations.

I mean, why do they want to spend silly amounts of money to create something that will only ever be a complete overkill.

The only thing weapons of such magnitude (even if it "only" met the expectation) achieve is killing lots of civilians.

Ignoring the morality of doing that, it's much less risky to deliver multiple smaller payloads which are also harder to counter from a strategic pov.

Very questionable all around

MIRV warheads were not a thing yet. Also by being possible you kinda need to build them to uphold MAD. Being able to kill all civilians is the whole point
