No. The only thing added is a highly speculative and suggestive quote (Of course, factoring in enough cronyism, corruption and official ignorance and boosterism, it’s possible the principals could make some money during the initial stages, before the crows come home to roost) from the "Los Alamos Study Group".

Also, the article ends in the words, "Or maybe not".

That fully sums up the criticism of the device.
