This is the proof of why your argument is wrong.
I struggle with this for sure. I admire and deeply sympathize with President Truman and the gut wrenching, life and death decision he made. I'm convinced that he believed he was making the right decision. I also believe he was a fine man.
However, I struggle with the destruction of so many innocent lives in an instant. They were almost all noncombatants.
I'll ponder this forever. Maybe there is no definitive right or wrong.

Get a grip man. It was the lesser of two evils. How is it more honorable to send tens of thousands of American troops to die in a mainland assault? Japan has only themselves to blame.

Would you have preferred a slower death rate with a land invasion that has a much higher body count?
I don't see why you drag things on when you can end a war almost instantly.

The only lives he should be worried about in this situation were those of the American soldiers and marines. Dropping those bombs saved tremendous amounts of American lives. That’s why you make the call the drop the bombs 10/10 times.
