The European EPR aren’t underwhelming: the power plants are delivering precisely what was planned. The underwhelming part comes from delay and cost overruns caused by local political opposition and lack of vision, as well as difficulties fi

I would expect a lot of attempts to fail and those tend to not be published, or gather less attention. So if we have reached a local optimum, any technique that gets close to the current benchmarks is worth publishing, as soon as results re
