This canard again? First off, the treaty to limit Neutron-Jammer Cancelers is an arms limitation treaty, so there's no need to abide by it once war has broken out. Next, we can be fairly certain that neither Kira nor Lacus were signatories to it, so it'd be a little bit weird to think that it'd apply to them in the first place.

For a real world analogy, the U.S. was a signatory to the Washington Naval Treaty, but it felt free to break its limiting stipulations as soon as war broke out with Japan. The Soviet Union wasn't a signatory of that treaty, so it could safely ignore the treaty's terms.
