It makes no plot sense that US/USSR developed nuke arsenal not to detonate one

Chekhov's Gun, etc: If you say in the first act that there is a rifle hanging on the wall, in the second or third act it absolutely must go off.
Any other examples in human history of a new weapons technology that not only emerges, but whose manufacture becomes extremely common, and which is never used? Cannot imagine there is.

confess I dont really know the difference between atomic weapons, hydrogen weapons, and nuclear weapons.
Its possible somewhere in the timeline there have been some exaggerations, maybe not even promoted by governments, but developed in the popular imagination ("a bomb that could make continents uninhabitable"), which governments have let perpetuate.
But I presume we have developed explosives that are much much more powerful than Hiroshima, whatever you want to name them.
