1) Consider the source
2) They invoked nuclear bombs (fud) in the article. (Indication of lack of
objectivity).
3) They do not tell you that tritiated water leaves your body just like beer
does. (Fear mongering)
So, yeah, probably the equivalent of a a few chest X rays.
But that was tritiated water. You would really have to work hard to turn
your gun site tritium into tritiated water.

I used to be stuck in a situation where I was forced to breath molten
"depleted" uranium smoke though :/

What exactly do you imagine a radiation “leak” is.
We are talking uranium dioxide. A ceramic pellet. Does not burn, melt,
dissolve, evaporate...

Reprocessing does not solve the problem. This waste does not vanish for
an
insane amount of time. No covering material lasts long enough. You have
to
reencapsule it to keep radiation inside. You need a place to store it and
watch nothing leaks. Our power companies try to split the responsibility
to
a separate company. They know this company will die sometimes in the
future.

And why are you thinking the waste needs to be encapsulated?

Just reprocess it. And really it is not that dangerous. A tanker of
chlorine or ammonia is much more dangerous.

Nuclear is very expensive. If you calculate the cost of moving and
reencapsulating the waste for some thousand years. Your ancestors will
learn
that no energy company will exist long enough to take responsibility for
the
waste they generated. This will be done by the tax payer.
