As someone who worked in fusion research for a few years for 30-50% of the salary that industry would pay for the same work: bullshit.

You're talking like someone who has no clue.

Maybe, as one who has clue, you can explain how a hot-neutron fusion plant could be operated much more cheaply than a fission plant of the same capacity. Because we already know fission gets less competitive each year.

(I should make clear that I make no assertion about the potential viability of aneutronic fusion. I am talking specifically about Tokamak.)

Guessing you can't, as no one else has.
