agree

True but the nature of the project and the potential dangers of the project materials also matter.



> How could we possibly know?

They communicated about it. What else do you want?

What are you trying to say? They found a problem, used the protocols they had in place to stop the reactors and they'll take care of it. Looks like they knew the nature of the project and potential dangers and had an appropriate response.


>They communicated about it.

That tells us nothing about what they did or tried to do before they finally did reveal some possibly partial information. So it doesn’t answer the question. How could we possibly know that they didn’t try to cover it up? For all we know, they tried very hard and failed.

>What else do you want?

Less naïveté when dealing with the topic of how the people running such projects tend to operate.
