Even without nuclear weapons, Pakistan has done very well against India in conventional conflicts. Especially considering the size difference.
So even without nuclear weapons, a smaller adversary can often hold back a much larger adversary. There are many examples in history, Vietnam for one.
I would not be so sure. I think India backed off because it would have damaged their own economy too much to go to war with Pakistan.
