It’s AI vs AI. Human world powers have their own and enormously more physical resources. So “attack them where they are weak” can be done but it doesn’t pay off if the weaker party doesn’t win immediately and is crushed by the retaliation.
That’s what makes a world where multiple parties have powerful means of attack semi stable. It’s the one we exist in.
Space suits and bunkers are just an expansion of what we already did to prepare for a nuclear war. It’s a way for most of the population to survive if the weaker party gets the first shot.

Same concept as a submarine loaded with ICBMs.
