   Our readingSmall modular reactors are the right idea, but you only reach them by iterating on real hardware -- which is what everyone else missed.

   Their wordswhat was missing is that people did not realize that you're going to have to pursue that model through hardware iteration. And that's where really where Valor is unique is that yes, we believe in SMRs, we believe in reactors that are manufactured, but we also know that in order to get there, you have to do it through hardware iteration.
