Why would fusion power result in "enourmous abundance" of usable energy? A fusion power plant would not run on magic, it is an extremely complex, very expensive high-tech system which requires human oversight, maintainance, and fuel.
- worldsayshi 10y agoWell, yeah, I wasn't too convinced myself. Perhaps self-replicating solar array in space level of abundance?
