With the “emergency brake on”, I don’t think anything will be rammed down anyone’s throat. This has a while to unfold. Assuming funding stabilizes, then assuming the concept is proven, there’s still the engineering development phase, and throughout this time, as noted elsewhere, many industries will be feeling threatened and likely challenging the concept “with extreme prejudice.”

I think skeptics needs will be well taken care of.

The forum ziggurat used to have a “skeptics” section, which is now the “noise” area.
