There is no reason to assume that fusion will be a particularly cheap power source.

Fusion has been 10 years away for the past 3 decades.

(I think fusion is great, by the way, but I just don’t believe any timelines at this point anymore)

>Some reactors we operate today are older than the oldest people on the planet!

That is not correct.

Some reactors we operate today are older than the oldest people on the planet!

My mom is older than any reactor that’s used for power generation.
