I’m not quite sure how humanity survived the advent of nuclear weapons without destroying itself — so far — but one thing that likely helped was the simple reason that it’s very hard to build a nuclear bomb.

It requires overcoming half a dozen technical hurdles, which requires time and the resources that only a state can gather.
