    The take-home lesson, to me at least is nuclear power is fine, if you actually listen to your own engineers and scientists, and do not compromise. 

    As we have discussed before, I differ. I am one of those "scientists and engineers" and don't think it is fine. I do have moderately close contact to the industry - for example, I have PhD students working at Framatome, on  cybersecurity, and meet nuclear engineers regularly in standardisation committees.
