I suspect that those are reserved for the big ones.

That's what I meant. If Iran's proxies are attacking Israel, trying to "suck them in", then Iran might decide to "come to the aid" of those proxies. Gotta get that 12th Imam out of that well somehow.

IIRC the Israelis have, or are working on, something else for the small ones, a big honking laser I think.

Hopefully. To use the nuclear option in that region, they would have to take into consideration the blow-back. They are encircled too closely by the enemy. If they use the bomb, it should be on Iran. The wind blows east and it would also stop the supply of arms to the local neighbors.
