I like your argument in general, as well as your summary of the problem of
inadequate knowledge about Coulomb barrier penetration.

About the Coulomb barrier in relation to the appearance of tritium of the
kind seen by Tom Claytor, it is possible that the two are unrelated, and
the tritium comes from other processes.  An example is the possibility of
an endothermic electron capture along the following lines:

e- + 3He => e- + neutrino + t - 19 keV
