What is pretty sustainable?

Grinding away for decades producing a tiny (relative to other commercially viable) amount of (admitted vastly toxic but containable) waste. The fuel waste could be reprocessed into more useable fuel (and there are new designs that essentially self reprocess the spend fuel and only need refueling after several decades.)

And what does sustainable have to do with perfect? There have been accidents (what got this conversation going.) But given the time and the number of units in use, very few.
