The hidden reason for "the line" City development in Saudi arabia. It can't be wiped out with one nuclear weapon. If you don't know it's Saudi Arabia's proposed building a city as a giant line with mirrored walls that stretches across the long dead portion of the desert. And people are commenting on whether it's a good idea or not but one thing I just realized was that if you don't have a city that is basically spreading out from a center point and instead have it as a line then it makes it almost impervious to easy destruction by nuclear weapons. You'd have to have a number of nuclear weapons to hit every portion of the line to take that City out. The best anyone could do is just a portion of the line. I don't know if that's one of the reasons they're doing it but thinking ahead the Middle East and in fact the whole world is just going to be one huge nuclear trigger area and it would make sense to do that. Especially if a substantial portion of the city is actually going to be buried underground as well like infrastructure.
