Its also only useful for young children and people who don’t have enough iodine in their diet.

“So for most people it wont help much.”
Actually, it’s the opposite. Most people, particularly in America, do NOT have enough iodine in their system. And, your thyroid does not discern between ‘good’ iodine and ‘bad’ iodine so if you load up on iodide (but preferably an iodine/iodide ratio) you will saturate yourself and be generally protected from the radioactive version.
Loading up your thyroid with safe iodide (or iodine, I forget which, but it doesn't matter) from the pills prevents your thyroid from absorbing the nuclear tainted iodide.
Depending on other conditions, it may or may not save your life.
I used to teach chemical - biological warfare survival.
It's far more likely you will survive a nuclear war, given the right circumstances, than old fashioned sword, spear, bow and arrow and battle axe warfare.
You can protect yourself from radiation.
They guy with the sword will hunt you down and kill you.

Besides, that’s easy for you to say. Aren’t you somewhere on the East Coast? lol.
CVS and Walmart online now say “out of stock.” Two days ago they had it. Maybe Janet Napolitano is stockpiling.
