Fission warheads

Why is the UNSC still using nuclear warheads with fissile material, by now they should have converted to pure fusion weapons entirely by now. Considering this is the same UNSC that authorized the SPARTAN-II program to put down rebels, you'd think that they wouldn't be squeamish about introducing relatively practical-for-tactical use WMDs. The only reason why we haven't converted is, besides expenses and technical difficulties, to keep us from throwing them out like candy (not that any sane military would, it's just a figure of speech) since their lack of radioactive fallout consequences make them easier to use and the associated expenses and difficulties, but like I said, the UNSC was willing to go through with the S-IIs,
