It's a neutrino beam... doesn't that mean it can be selectively directed to only disable SOME nuclear bombs... on the other side of the earth, where host country arsenal is not.

Although would a smaller version be viable ABM defense against nukes? Assuming you can hit them a few "minutes" and have them explode at 3% yield. Which is still kiloton range given full yeild of modern weapons.
