Which is why the allies didn't bother with them
But it seemed to bother them enough to send almost 600 bombers over to Peenemuende in '43.
Plus Von Braun and his boys were taken to the USA immediately after the war.

To me it seems that contradicts your statement above...

Those reason given 'why the allies decided it was not worth to bother' are exactly those myths created to cover up for own shortcomings. Rewriting history. Bending reality.

It's a bit like about the Sherman tank. That a more heavy tank would have been a logistical problem to ship across the Atlantic and all that stuff. Yet after WW II all their main battle tanks were 45+ tons... Exactly the opposite.

If it really did not bother the allies they would not have send 600 bomber to Peenemuende and they would not have made a point in getting Von Braun and his crew.
