LNT is a funny model: it's extremely simple yet people misunderstand it all the time. Like, it's basically how you would model loss of money would affect your finance. You lose ten cents, you're out of ten cents. You lose ten million dollars, you're out of ten million dollars. Totally proportional. Now the funny thing is, nobody sane would say "Losing a quarter that fell out of your pocket is losing money, gambling away a million dollars is also losing money! There's no threshold beyond which losing money becomes not losing money, therefore having a loose pocket is as bad as gambling addiction!" Yet change the subject from dollars to radiation, and so many people run around saying "No threshold! That means there's no safe dose! Living next to a working nuclear reactor is as bad as walking into the ruins of Chernobyl!"
