Don't even need to go that far. History has shown us that just throwing a non-radioactive rock at someone is a weakness

    I argue that the entire history of weapon development has been "figure out better way to throw better rock".

    For conventional weapons, sure. But I don't think your description fits flamethrowers, sonic, or laser weaponry.

    Flamethrowers use oil products, which are part of petrochemistry. "Petro" comes from the Greek word for "rock".
