    In at least one of these cases I think what happened is the computer showed only a single missile and the officer recognized that there wasn't any case where the Americans would launch one missile. Doctrine said to retaliate but the guy was all "nah, this is a glitch or something, if it was the real thing there'd be hundreds or thousands of missiles, not one.

      Yeah, it's not "nothing ever happens" but "a single nuke from amerikkka is sussier than a red amogus"
