You will have to explain then, why the media which has every reason to under-report the magnitude of the blast, has reported 20ktons as the energy release. Also, the Richter scale measure a test produces is not simply scaled with the energy release, but also with how well the energy couples to the bedrock. Different soils produce drastically different results.

Also, the people making the evaluation of the blast can sample the atmosphere and determine the bomb materials exactly…

…You are saying many thousands of people with direct knowledge of the actual truth and drastically contrasting and diametrically opposed goals are all engaged in a conspiracy to deceive us with no one publicly producing contrary results.

Without knowing more, you have no credibility.
