now you're doing the same conflating words game with the word "regulator" as if a regulator on a pipe is the same as a regulatory agency.

Can you not just make a logical persuasive argument that doesn't rely on conflating two things that aren't the same?

I think the point is a valid one. Not all nuclear regulators are as blinkered as the NRC. Canada, for example, has a very effective regulatory regime, while being much friendlier to new technology. Terrestrial Energy, a molten salt reactor company in Canada, is making good progress and has spoken highly of their regulators. But I don't think anyone would say that Canada makes unsafe reactors.
