Neglectedness in the classic sense. Although not as crowded as climate change, there are other large organizations /​ institutions that address nuclear risk and have been working in this space since the early Cold War.
I agree that the nuclear risk field as a whole is less neglected than AGI safety (and probably than engineered pandemic), but I think that resilience to nuclear winter is more neglected. That’s why I think overall cost-effectiveness of resilience is competitive with AGI safety.
