And of course we don't have a functional antimissile defense system capable of reducing it to small harmless pieces.

After spending how much?

Forget an anti-missile defense system. How about a good old fashioned self-destruct mechanism? Would a battery and a detonator, of some kind, aboard cost as much as damages paid if this sucker lands on people?

The function of the antimissile defense system is simply to cause the incoming warhead to miss its target and/or fail to detonate when it gets there.

Got that stuff going, but plumb forgot to put the Hoover in the package to clean up.

Sorry about that.

So then you’d have double or triple the amount of junk falling? Yeah good plan. :)
