Assuming they did this by overturning a ruling of the chair or, as is currently trendy, sustaining a point of order submitted to the Senate, I don’t think I would even call that ‘nuclear’; it wouldn’t conflict with the text of the cloture rule.

Fun fact: Lee voted against (cloture on the motion to proceed to) that resolution, as well as against nuking the next day; Collins voted against nuking. Resolution: www.senate.gov/legislative/... Nuclear option #1: www.senate.gov/legislative/... Nuclear option #2: www.senate.gov/legislative/...
