>when handled properly That's the crux of the nuclear issue. Everything works great in the theoretical world where everything is handled properly, all factors are properly accounted for, and all tradeoffs were wisely made.

The question is then "What happens when every failsafe fails, and is that risk acceptable compared to the alternatives?"
