Putin's Future Black Sea NUCLEAR Warning Explosion?

My sources indicate this may be Putin's plan:

Putin may react against the US decision to permit Ukraine to fire ATACMS missiles [1] onto targets in Russia in the following way.

Putin may stage a low yield nuclear warning (atmospheric or on sea) explosion over international Black Sea air-sea space to scare the international community. The yield may be less than 100 tons (ie. < 0.1 kiloton) using a very small existing or newly developed warhead. This would be of the same magnitude yield as the old US Davy Crockett's - W54 Mod 2 warhead (yield was 0.02 kilotons). Delivery means might be many and varied, eg. a suitcase nuke [2] dropped out of a helicopter, transport plane, free fall bomb from a fighter-bomber, dropped off by a boat or conventional submarine, or within an aerial, sea surface or under sea drone or a missile warhead.

"There might be no casualties."

The objective would be to shock the world, including the US, in preparation for the Trump brokered post January 20, 2025 Ukraine-Russia Peace Treaty.

Perhaps Russia's new creditor, China, is holding back Putin from such a warning explosion because the international shock could damage China's top priority, healthy trade.

Ukraine, the US and broader NATO would be more willing to avoid the threat of a seemingly "unhinged Putin" ushering in a regional nuclear war by giving in to Putin’s territorial and other demands. 

Proposed Historical Precedent

Note that in the runup to the 1945 nuclear explosions against Japan a non-combat demonstration explosion was considered [3].
