It’s a basic cost/ benefit judgement.

Basically even most people who support it see the GBSD as like a necessary evil; they recognize that it is needed but they are not particularly enthusiastic about it and they want it as cheap and cheerful as possible.

So issues like being able to carry over infrastructure and keeping cost down are particularly important.

The comparison with the B-21 re: mirroring rather than eclipsing the capabilities of the B-2 is instructive.

You have a different view. And it may well be fair comment that the perspective above has its own blinders and limits.

But it’s not fair, accurate or productive to think that those that hold a version of the general view I spelled out above don’t want a viable defense, and it would be rather hyperbolic to suggest that a GBSD mirroring rather than eclipsing MMIII would leave you without a viable defense.
