If LPP shows a viable means to convert x-rays/gamma rays (more layers in the onion is all you need unless you are worried about Compton scatter), it could be implemented in nuclear fission plants.

That’s their concern; IMO, IIRC, there’s not enough stray gamma from the FF to make it worthwhile. Gamma can be very penetrating; the “just a few more layers” might mean double or triple!
