Why stealth through small radar dot, when we could have stealth through making the dot so large it's impossible to know where it's coming from? Are they stupid?

My favorite part of this was Klein-Heidelberg, a German passive radar system that used the broadcasts from Britain’s Chain Home radar stations to precisely locate Allied bomber formations. The Allies knew about it but kept Chain Home operational because they wanted German fighters to come up after the bombers - and get shot down.
