My point was that you have to be a ridiculously powerful wielder of the One Power before being able to weave balefire stronger than a nuke. There’s probably only a handful of people in the series that can do it, now that the Choedan Kal is broken.
But there’s no shortage of people who could accomplish it cooperatively, if you get male and female channelers working together.
I’m sure that in Wheel of Time there were plenty of ways to obliterate a city with the One Power back in the Age of Legends. The issue isn’t that it can obliterate cities, but that if you use it for wholesale destruction like that, unlike, say, explosions, it fucks up the very fabric of reality.
