Well it had the proper geometry...

A sphere was/is the proper geometry for the warhead on an ICBM?

Tisk, tisk; you said nuclear weapon, you did not say warhead...

;-)

And he certainly didn't say RV, which is something else again.

Seeing how spheres *were* used by the Soviet Union, I'd say that it is
a totally feasible geometry for the weapon, the warhead AND the RV.
