Stuxnet was a full stack of plugins (which lends huge weight toward the early "big team" design and build theories of first observers).
There was a payload intended for very specific centrifuges ... and there was replication toward target logic ( Farsi language | locale seeking targets for copying ) IIRC.
The "work" of Stuxnet wasn't limited to screwing up the centrifuges, it also had seeking and limited comms.
