If the status quo was so great, why was Iran sitting on near-weapons-grade uranium and months from breakout? “Do nothing and hope” wasn’t a strategy. The only meaningful question is whether Iran ends up weaker and farther from a bomb than before. If yes, it’s an improvement

Iran will clearly end up much richer and thus stronger than before, with fewer international trade impediments. So Iran having a nuke is objectively much closer and more likely than before.
