I did read your comment, but it made no sense, so I assumed it was a typo.
You wrote: "proved beyond the shadow of the doubt that it's both doable and feasible" - and at the same time that they didn't do it.
So how did they prove "beyond the shadow of the doubt" something they didn't even do?
That made so little sense I assumed you didn't realize they didn't power the engines from the reactor.
Edit: maybe you don't realize that carrying the nuclear plant is the easy part (heavy lift vehicles exist after all), powering the engines is the very hard part.
