Indeed, you're right. I never could understand that "Special Ammo" angle.
Of course, I also didn't understand his whole Doomsday angle. So, your plan to fight a godlike being is to...create a godlike being of your own that doesn't have a kill switch? Let's say that Doomsday kills Superman and survives the ordeal...what then? Did Lex even HAVE a method of STOPPING Doomsday once he finished handling Superman?

There was a whole meet/cute angle that had to be ditched in theatrical.
