Well said, we both have more than enough to bring about nuke winter. And, we, the public, only have general numbers and no idea of readiness, or accuracy, or much of anything.
You just AGREED with Mike who provided actual numbers for weapons from Russia and the US. THOSE aren’t my numbers, I didn’t provide numbers.
I provided a source, radiofreeeurope, for the nuclear preparedness of Russia versus the US. Do some research, reading and check in on reliable news sources, the US didn’t perform the latest scheduled exercise lest Putin be upset. It’s not brain surgery.

The only link I saw that you posted was to an opinion.
6000+ is not an exact number, it is an estimate.
You stated as FACT that the US would lose a nuke war against Russia.
If you found a report that the reason the US stop an exercise was to avoid making Putin mad, your Google Foo is better than mine, because I can find no such article. And if you can find it I expect it will be my opinion. I am pretty sure the US would not say in print, "We are afraid of fighting Russia, so we are going to stop any military actions that might make Putin mad"...
But, I could be wrong, apparently, you can't be wrong.
