…Because countries are less willing to fight wars due to the possibility of escalating into a nuclear war.

Holding everyone hostage sure feels like peace! Peace also somehow includes funding genocides and bombing countries in the middle east.
“ holding everyone hostage” is a huge hyperbole, your rights aren’t being infringed because other countries have nukes those big countries just stopped directly attacking each other which is a good thing.
Proxy wars have existed for a long time and will continue for a long time the entire American revolution only succeeded because France was funding the U.S. and Britain was too busy fighting France to devote enough resources to fight the U.S.
Could you imagine how many more deaths there would be if NATO directly fought against the Warsaw pact
