Can Compact Fusion Reactors Power Small Cities?

Frankly, this sounds like meaningless corporate-speak to me. You cannot schedule discovery/invention and you cannot design the post-discovery commercial development process until you know what you are developing.

I disagree with every one of those statements.

Do you think publishing something means it's true and not publishing means it isn't? Consensus science doesn't prove one is on the right track.

No, but that is not what you said before.

What is true is that published material is more likely to be true than unpublished material because of peer review and follow-up responses. Conversely, when not true, it is more likely to be known to be not true.

Consensus science doesn't prove one is on the right track.

No, it just makes it much more likely.

[edit] And when it comes to fusion it is extra important to follow a rigorous and open academic process due to the subject's history of failed promises and fraud.
