Fallout is not necessarily proportional to yield. In fact, small bombs like this can be much “dirtier” than the fusion boosted fission designs.
The detonation height also plays a counterintuitive role; lower is worse. Though I’m not sure how this applies to the Fat Man and Little Boy fireballs, I remember their detonation heights being kinda low.
