Nevertheless, a bomber's bombs should actually be trivially easy to disarm, because it's difficult to disarm a bomb on its way to the ground.

The most failsafe conventional bombs, yes. Nuclear explosions are inherently difficult to set off.Annihilators of Chan Island wrote:Both good points. I'll add a few words noting that they have severely degraded. Even the most failsafe bomb risks going off randomly after a couple of decades of decay.
I asume you mean a conventional bomb, since if someone had accidentally set off a nuke I'm sure I would have heard about it.Annihilators of Chan Island wrote:A bomber's bombs are fairly easy to disarm, but after 70 years of degradation it's much harder than that. Relatively recently one set off killing some of the experts assigned to disarm it.

Anything else?

I note option 3 had a lot of nuclear-related puns. Maybe revisit the wording here?
