    Yes, but also literally every industry starts that way. Start small and scale up. Nuclear’s special because we did it once and then almost completely stopped building them globally for so long that the capability faded away.

    The tech shifted in the meantime, so even the knowledge that was preserved is for designs we wouldn’t want to build today.

    It’s a weird situation.
