Let me say this how it sounds to me:

I couldn’t build weapons of mass destruction my whole life, I tried to build nukes several times but couldn’t. Now I have a robot that just does the nuking for me, while I can build other things. My other friends don’t seem to have a problem with the nuking, because they get to shoot their guns faster.

I’m sorry, but just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should. I could do a lot of immoral, unethical, horrible to humanity and nature things and yet I don’t.

I mean the nuke analogy is quite stretched
