I realise these are extreme examples, but that's the problem with nuclear, if it goes wrong the consequences are terrifying.
And I agree about the airborne/waterborne contaminants from burning fossil fuels, but they're no less manageable than nuclear waste with many aftertreatments proven to deal with most of the pollutants. Just playing devils advocate now tbh, beats revision.
