This is the point, the amount of money used for this acquisition could have been used to bring the Model 3 to market quicker and make batteries in Reno quicker, not to mention any unforeseen problems with production, scaling, and recalls go

So is it really economically at that point? Is developing, prototyping and building a next gen reactor worth the money? Do we even know how much it would take to account for other 1-in-100 year risks? Is it worth it over better solar/w
