  >You are essentially saying that "just make them safe and they will be safe". Yep, thats the proposal. Do you still find it objectionable if they are safe?

    You know the meme about drawing the owl? The burden is on you to describe exactly how they will be made safe.

      That is an entirely different question than IF someone would want floating reactors provided they are safe. Read through the comment chain >> What if we could make them safe? >It is not a technical problem. It is a social one.

        Yes, and I'm saying the commenter is simply ignoring the problems. They aren't just social. A nuclear reactor is something that must be controlled and secured, period. That's not because of social pressure, that's because of the reality of the technology. It's insanity to think otherwise.

          The point I was trying to make, is that the social problem is problem enough, even if they magically could be made safe.

            Ah, fair enough.
