I'm unsure how we can argue this any further. You're arguing "what supports the existence of the concept of citizenship and a sovereign nation". That is the legal framework (across nations) we've agreed upon.

Culture, history, belief in a common set of values or traditions - Tradition.

People ought to have a vested interest in the place they work, and live. I know of no better way to do that than citizenship.

I have no inherent problem with the concept of citizenship, I just point out that it is arbitrary, and more importantly, I don’t think it should be the threshold for the people the government should be expected to protect or support.

It is arbitrary, because you have to draw the line somewhere.

How about people who are not violent criminals and don’t have contagious diseases? That is far less arbitrary.
