I went 'hahaha' when I read this.
You really think a country like Seel would start a conventional war against the Earth Federation? No, they would most likely finance and supply terrorists (a time tested method as you said). Hence, A-LAWS would still be fighting the same kind war even though a legitimate government is involved. So, they still won't need such a weapon.
As for the EF not knowing what the Memento Mori would do after it completion. Pfff. You can use backdoor connections and influence to smuggle some arms, not to construct a giant orbital battlestation that dwarfs cariers. I find it hard to believe.
Oh and as for nuclear weapons not being cheap. Unfortunately they are. Why do think relative poor countries like Iran and North-Korea these days have/had/can-have their own nuclear programs. They could turn out nuclear weapons by the dozens if we let them.

'pretty much destroys what Galerian said'? Arguments aside, I find it hard to believe one opinion can destroy another.
