Please tell me how it’s terrible, Mr Hard Nosed Engineer ?

  Low power density (at least an order of magnitude worse than fission), high complexity, need to maintain large complex objects for which hands-on maintenance is impossible and for which there are many parts for which no redundancy is possible. Fusion reactors are the opposite of "Keep It Simple, Stupid". The engineering undesirability of DT fusion has been known for decades. All the recent excitement doesn't address any of the known showstoppers.

    You sound like someone Id love to see proven wrong.
