I mean, Israel, South Africa, India and Pakistan did it, and the world didn’t end.

The NPT is arguably a relic of a world in which NATO was considered reliable. We may not be in that world anymore. If Putin invades Poland, will the US help? Or will Putin wave the piss tape in Trump’s face and bring him to heel? This is not as clear-cut as one might like it to be.

I didn't say anything about the world ending and none of these countries were NPT signatories. South Africa joined eventually.
