But if Daxamites are susceptible to such a small concentration, then even the trace amounts that are already in the atmosphere and the water should be enough to do noticeable damage. Add to this, the bomb was originally designed (by Lex) to do the same thing but with kryptonite, so as to prevent any Kryptonians from being on Earth. But Lex seems to have overlooked that kryptonite is '''radioactive'''; even though its effects are near-instant to Kryptonians, it's been shown in the comics that prolonged exposure ''will'' cause radiation poisoning in humans, and it doesn't get more prolonged that everyone on the planet breathing it in around the clock.

Even Darkseid's speech about how all the death and destruction on Earth are on Superman's hands was mirrored here, albeit two episodes ago.
