Size is not the point. You would still have to make a deal with your enemy to insure whatever happens does not lead to a domino effect. Both friend and foe alike collectively have enough nukes to blow up the planet several times over. Diplomacy will be the only thing that prevents mutual destruction.
Unless you can insure our enemies wont escalate that is a bullshit point.
