They’re only “nuclear” if they have an actual, LIVE NUCLEAR WARHEAD as the payload.

Otherwise, they’re just “nuclear-capable”.

Quite. Also, they aren't "nuclear capable" until the nukes involved are small enough to fit. A missile that would fit our most efficient warhead design wouldn't remotely carry an early generation clunker...
