but does NOLA really need 4 of them?

It’s a little hard to tell, but I think what you’re seeing on that map is:
- One on Garyville (refinery)
- One on Norco (refineries)
- One on Chalmette (refineries)
- One on Belle Chasse (naval air station)

Remember, the 2,000 warhead scenario isn’t really about maximizing casualties. It’s about destroying the country’s ability to wage war. Dropping a bomb on the city itself might kill just as many people but allow some of that infrastructure to survive.
