> Any use of nukes will not be an act of rationality

Does that mean past usage also wasn't rational? Or it was rational in that case, but impossibly can be rational in the future?

I'm not the person you're responding to, but most of the irrationality of nuclear weapons use is when it's nuclear weapons use against an entity which also has nuclear weapons.

Any use is going to lead to at a minimum an equally harmful response.
