There’s a difference in giving in to nuclear blackmail with a country like say, Iran or North Korea, who have extremely limited number of bombs and probably even less delivery systems and giving in to the largest nuclear power by number of bombs in the world with the means to deliver them.

I would posit that there is no difference at all. When you demonstrate that you will give in to nuclear blackmail to a major power, all the minor powers will take notice and follow suit.
