Nukes in this day and age seem to me like they should effectively be obsolete. I feel like in the age of satellite observation and the idea of geo-privacy being basically null, every developed country ought to have anti icbm tech, similar to an mrap. Short of mass amounts of dirty bombs, I feel like nuclear war should be a non issue in modern times.

If nuclear war were a non issue, massive conventional wars would be common, like they were before nukes were invented. Care for a draft card? Ukraine used to have old Soviet nukes. It stupidly gave them up. Now what’s happening?
MIRV’d ICBMs with countermeasures and nuclear cruise missiles are way too hard to detect and destroy, especially when multiples are simultaneously launched.
Don’t even get me started on hypersonic missies.
