Iran doesn’t have 5,177 nuclear warheads.

I’m not saying you’re wrong; I suspect the IRGC is stubborn enough to never surrender no matter what happens to Iran's civilians… But that’s because they’re stupid.

Hence I think this is a bad analogy, as Japan surrendered in exactly the circumstances you’re describing. In Man In The High Castle, the US did too, and I think that’s a plausible fictional scenario, as nuclear war basically makes resistance impractical.
