There's a saying among pilots:

"Aviation in itself is not inherently dangerous. But to an even greater degree than the sea, it is terribly unforgiving of any carelessness, incapacity or neglect."

This is 10x more true with nuclear power. And you can add malfeasance, graft, corruption, ignorance of basic science, and generally every other flaw inherent in humanity to the list.

It totally is though. The general public understand this intuitively. What goes up must come down. And for the industry to work it requires a staggering amount of effort, coordination and training. That safety record can never be taken for granted.
