In other words, American Indians who were proud of their spears and axes should instead have embraced self-destruction.
Yikes.
My ancestors were vikings. Should their victims also have embraced self-destruction rather than make the best weapons they could to defend themselves from the vikings?

Tell me more about how the vikings "didn't want violence"?
If your greatest achievement ended up with a bunch of people dead - maybe there would have been more utility in self-destruction.
If you feel like defending cool missile tech to avoid offending a potential juicy customer - maybe you need to get your family bombed and remember that “skin in the game” can be literal.
If you think that violence is necessary - maybe you need to be in situation where violence is a possible outcome to remember no one wants it.
Everyone deserves the receiving end of their designs.
