In the case of Japan during WWII, was it necessary to kill people with the atom bomb ... or would a less lethal demonstration of its ability to cause massive casualties have been sufficient? Would it have been more prudent to try a demonstration in less habited areas first, before going on to kill tens of thousands if the demonstation did not provoke surrender?

Once again, Hirohito didn't even surrender after witnessing the destruction of the first nuke, so to think a mere tech demo would eek a surrender out of Japan is fucking idiocy.
Honestly, you have the comprehension skills of a fucking salamander.
