"the "spray bottle" tells us that the agent was targeting respiratory system, not dermal. "
I'm not sure this follows. If the cloth was impregnated with one of the binary components and the other was sprayed on the cloth, then VX would be synthesized right there in contact with the skin. I don't know that you could be sure a lethal dose would be inhaled in one or two seconds.
While I'm not convinced a binary compound was needed in this case, it is an interesting theory!
