This is absurd. You keep "bigger countries off your ass" specifically by informing them you have nuclear warheads. The whole point is to inform them. How exactly would you deter them otherwise?

"You keep "bigger countries off your ass" specifically by informing them you have nuclear warheads." Not if you don't want tons of spies all up in your shit, you don't. "And if Iran has secret nukes, how do you possibly explain Stuxnet?" As if that stops them from secretly importing refined material.
