I would say the opposite: by keeping the 10 year olds and computational chemists out of it.
That compound
will not exist

Yeah that's why computational chemistry is an iffy field in some ways to me.
Just because you can build it in the software, doesn't mean you can synthesize it.

even if it does exist, ring strained N-O single bonds will mean the compound decomposes around 100C. A good explosive needs twice that or more.
