1950s us military planners believed you could sprinkle a little nuclear war into your battlefields in the form of tactical nukes
read the NSC-30 and NSC-68 from the Truman administration and you’ll see a normalisation of battlefield nukes, with 300 planned nukes deployable for operation dropshot against the USSR and John foster Dulles offering France two nukes to break the 1954 viet minh siege in indochina
it is likely new players on the nuclear battlefield would act equally casual with their new toy
