So, if logistics of storing and operating nukes were simpler (say, HTML editor vs. an old-style printing press) and the cost was down with any other weapon (don't laugh, you can get a 1GHz PC for less than old mainframes cost), would you support private ownership? Or how about hand-held blasters and the like? You don't mind black powder cannon, so requirement of a crew to operate doesn't make a weapon ineligible.
