> stretching the words 'relatively easy' to ludicrous limits I take it they mean "easier than supplying 1000 galaxies-worth of energy" or similar

  Right. It's 'easy' relative to the utterly impossible. But it's 'utterly impossible' relative to anything any reasonable human might consider easy.

    Then they are using the term right. They said relatively easy, not absolutely easy.

      I agree that it's not flat wrong, it's just a huge stretch. Compared to what they propose, a commercially viable fusion power plant is "relatively easy."
