The neutron diffusion simulation seems simplistic and probably reflects the limitations of the time. Can one imagine what John Von Neumann would do given access a modern supercomputer?

It might be interesting feeling when one looks at his own idea implemented decades later on the scale multifold beyond the scale it was originally conceived at - ie. from "architecture" to "bottleneck" :) On the other side it is a testament to his vision that we still can't transcend it.
