Wisdom tooth, appendix, goosebumps, and tailbone is called evolutionary left overs. All those disadvantages were once useful traits and are on the way out.

And please shut that technobabble.
Everything has its side effects
If it's active, it would require power. If it's passive, it would have its chemical side effects. Probably both

Look at meth and cocaine. They used to be the panacea of health what an error that was.

>it true that fusion "only" generates 4-5 times more energy than fission
LMAO
No
Splitting a U-236 would result into a Ba and Kr which is lighter than the original by .08% because that mass was converted into energy
When you fuse 4H, the resulting He has a mass difference of .7% because said mass was also converted into energy

That's a massive 10x more efficiency

Now compare that to chemical reactions from coal and natural gas that converts less than 5.0x10^-11 into energy. Or .00000001% efficiency

It's absolutely impossible to study physics without feeling a strong sense of rage as you realize that the full potential of technology is being held back by ignorance and fear mongering from politicians and oil tycoons

And it is not difficult to find people who are far too brainwashed by propaganda. My own circle of friends entertain the idea despite the fact that I personally taught them how it works
