    Besides, those things are designed by people who actually know nuclear physics, and are not hamstrung by review boards and astroturf protest movements.

      Well, I’ve got some bad news about every single military vehicle with wheels or tracks and military airplane the United States operates.

      I think they usually consult some people who know nuclear physics when they build nuclear power plants.
