And someone wiht a .50 caliber Barett would have zero chance of survival against a smart bomb dropped from miles in the air, but that doesn't mean that the rifle is useless.

Sure, keeping people from wanting to kill you in the first place is the most desirable option, but it is because that doesn't always work that Morihei Ueshiba spent sixty years practicing martial technique.

Best,
