Designs are one thing. Being able to manufacture it to spec, then assembling it properly are 2 other factors.
You may be right (that this is a physically small warhead, small enough to fit a Taepo-Dong 2), but I tend to believe that the easiers bomb to manufacture (for a first-timer) is still 4X to heavy for that missile to loft.
There are lots of reasons to discount the threat as not imminent, like your other point to me that targeting a carrier group is not an easy thing. True, but IMHO there's a lot of puckering going on as the number of years before we really gave to worry has shortened considerably. There is no joy to be had.
