People see Japans conviction rate and think "that's amazing" before thinking about what would be required to be correct that consistently.

If you look at a 99.9% conviction rate and think "amazing" thinking isn't your strong suit.

¹should've either waited to drop the bombs until dug-in soviet ground troops could see them or decapitated the state so bad there were no lumbar vertebrae left after world war two.

I mean they forced a total surrender, America could have done whatever it wanted, and MacArthur decided to leave all of the guilty in power because at least they hate commies.
