I strongly agree with your comment, but I want to point out in defense of this trend that nuclear weapons policy seems to be unusually insulated from public input and unusually likely to be highly sensitive/not good to discuss in public.
I’m not just talking about preventing nuclear war, though, but also mitigations in the case where it happens. If there’s something you can do to reduce risk for yourself, there’s probably also something you can do to reduce risk for a thousand or ten thousand other people.

Good point, I didn’t think of that.
