No they do not agree with you. They don't say anything about warhead
capability at all. You waste our time with off-topic nonsense.

All you do is quote a lot off off-topic stuff that is superfluous to
the point that we are supposed to be discussing.

Read again:
"This vertically launched missile uses a single-stage solid propellant
rocket motor. It is normally armed with a 100 kg HE-fragmentation
warhead with a proximity fuse, though a low yield tactical nuclear type
is believed to be an alternative warhead option."

Now then; What part didn't you understand?

NATO really should have a looksee to see what those SS-300s are tipped
with.
What are NATO partners for, anyway?

What more does anyone need than this:
1) Tack nuke capable SS-300s parked at the Baltic borders by russia.

If russia wanted to remove any doubt, then they could have used the
non-nuke capable SAM systems. But they didn't. And haven't.
