The American tacticians weighed their options heavily. It was either this, or a land invasion. If we had made the land invasion, many, many more people would have died (estimated to be in the millions). The war would have been dragged out much longer.
It's regrettable that it happened, and I don't think such a weapon should have ever even been made, but as bad as it was, many more likely would have died in the land invasion.
You are partially correct; however, there is one other possibility: by 8/45 Nimitz, King, and Arnold all opposed invading S. Kyushu. Only MacArthur favored S. Kyushu. If we had simply blockaded Japan MILLIONS- mostly children- would have starved to death.
