Next-generation nuclear reactors may not be safer: French watchdog

16. Exactly as I expected - you are misdefining "prototype"

It is one of the first tricks to look for when dealing with you Bags. They are talking about prototype for a commercially ready reactor, not a demonstration of concept prototype that is cobbled together to test a facet of the technology.

The quote is an accurate presentation of the body of the paper and their conclusion is in line with that of everyone else. There is no expectation of a commercial prototype before mid-century.

This BS play with the idea of what a "prototype" is and what it means about something being close to commercial development is the same game y'all nuclear acolytes play with the stories you tell about the Oak Ridge Molten Salt Reactor Experiment.

That thing was never even close to being a commercial prototype. And contrary to the legend et-you-al try to create, because it was only marginally better than light water reactors in a just couple of areas, it was discontinued because the technical obstacles weren't worth spending the money to overcome.
