Original Note:
Historians accept that elements in the Japanese government were already exploring surrender terms before the dropping of the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The main sticking point was the survival of the Japanese Imperial family, which the Allies eventually conceded anyway. https://ahf.nuclearmuseum.org/ahf/history/debate-over-japanese-surrender/
