Whoa. Experimental pB11 fusion validation is old news… in fact the most recent experiments along those lines showed that the reaction should be even easier to tap for direct conversion to electricity than was previously thought:

I wasn’t referring to energetic output, but the inputs necessary to cause fusion.

… errrr…

…. how do you think they got the output they used to measure energy distribution?

By fusing the inputs. Did the paper state how much energy they put into the system first? If they were already net positive, there’d be no point to FoFu. Do you think I was saying no one had fused hydrogen to boron before?
