>tldw; nuclear very cool, but you need a megacity to make it work b/c its always on after the reaction starts. below that critical mass of wattage, you're just boiling water for no reason.

It also enables in-situ plutonium enrichment in an embedded reactor, which avoids terrorism enrichment risk apparently.
