Tbh, I think that’s a political move either way. If nobody develops that technology further, nobody will be able to nuke the US. Nobody would realistically be able to tell if the US has completely destroyed all of their stockpiles and records, which will act as a deterrent against any attacks, whether they actually retain their nuclear capability or not (I also 100% believe they would not, but that’s just because I’ve learned not to trust the US government).
