It's not just the power of the nukes that we're concerned about, because, that, as you pointed out, is quite public. The other things we are concerned about is how we wire the missiles, what our technology is exactly capable of, things like that. It's pretty sensitive stuff.
Remember the Spy Plane incident with China? Those guys on the plane had to dump pretty much every electronic device into the ocean before they could even land.
People know that we can do it, they just don't know how, and that comes in handy if ever we get into a war, because those rockets that deliver those nuclear payloads can be refitted for just normal explosive warheads.
I still maintain that our compliance with the NPT, and regular incremental disarmament with the Russian Federation works quite well, and that the UN doesn't need to step in.
