Have there been any other times in the past 80 years that you think would have justified the use of an A-bomb, or are the only two instances where they *were* actually used against people the only two that could be justified?

This.

I don't think I have ever seen someone saying "well, bombing civilians is terrible, but it's better than the alternative".

I don't think I have ever seen someone saying "The use of nukes would be justified in this case."

except for the case of the only two nukes used in history. Then it's suddenly "necessary", "justified" or the "lesser evil".
