Right. To expand: Maybe someday we can use liquid hydrogen or nitrogen (or even water, depending on progress with hydride superconductors) for these reactors, but a big reason they’re able to make this more compact reactor work is the much higher critical currents/fields that these high temperature superconductors can handle when cooled far below their critical temperature.
