0) Ignorant enough not to realize nuclear reactors need periodic refueling. On a yearly-ish basis for commercial models; military ones can go a few decades, but only by starting with near weapons grade fuel to begin with.

We don't bother our golden brains about such problems; that's what the "little people" are for.

1) Delusional enough to think refueling a reactor is as easy as topping up gas in your car, and thus something that can be done while flying

They still haven't understood that fission <> fusion. They also think that refueling a liquid hydrogen tank is as easy (and as safe) as filling a gasoline tank.

2) Sociopathic enough to think that letting 20 nuclear reactors crash into the surface when their fuel is depleted is OK.

Only the "little people" will be harmed, so who cares?
