The point is if you want to consider how successful a major infrastructure project then you should base things on similar countries. Brazil has multiple nuclear reactors though South America has very few.

If the history of nuclear incidents should tell us anything it’s the importantance of understanding failure modes. To use a Brazil example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goiânia_accident

Massive complex infrastructure projects in poor countries often fail to finish or suffer from substandard construction etc.
