I didn't say that ShinGoji is a metaphor for nuclear weapons. If anything, its based on the Tohoku earthquake and Fukushima Daichii nuclear meltdown. If you read again, I was using that quote as proof of Godzilla's original design intentions being based on an atomic bomb victim's keloid scars, in which similar intentions have been blatantly carried over in how Shin Godzilla has been designed to look like a horribly-scarred nuclear monstrosity instead of just looking like a giant lizard. ShinGoji being a metaphor for the aforementioned disasters and him being designed to homage the similarly horrific design intentions from 1954 aren't mutually exclusive.
