This is the first one. Before you build the first one, you haven't built one. Are you saying first things can never be built?

  If I go around bragging about my awesome self-built home design for years, and then buy, clear and level a plot of land, while it is a necessary step, it is also largely irrelevant to my ability to actually build the house, much less the quality of the finished building.

    If they had bragged that they had built their design and that is proven in practice, you might have a point. But they haven't. So you don't. They started building, with the non-nuclear bits first, as one does. Now they have regulatory approval. One step after another.

      Building the actual reactor is the challenging bit. You claimed that building the non-nuclear parts of the construction as evidence that the reactor itself will successfully be built, which is nonsense. That someone builds a launchpad tells you nothing about their ability to build and successfully launch rockets

        No I didn't. I gave the fact that it is being built as evidence counter the claim that it wouldn't be built at all. Which should be uncontroversial.
