The long-term commercial incentives of nuclear power run in the direction of divestiture of the plant into a spin-out company which can be loaded down with debt and carry the environmental costs into a legally-isolated bankruptcy.

Which is to say: I do not trust Microsoft with nuclear power, let alone Oracle.
