Yes, they are "forever associated with lattice and geometry defects "
but that is not relevant. You need to understand what happens at the
site of the nuclear reaction. The site of a hot fusion reaction has
two d coming together with enough energy to overcome the Coulomb
barrier and cause the two d to fuse. Then the resulting single body
splits into two bodies. These two bodies go off in opposite directions
while carrying the energy and momentum. This is conventional behavior.
For cold fusion to occur, the 2 d must come together without extra
energy, but nevertheless overcome the Coulomb barrier. How this
process can occur is being debated. Nevertheless, the result is a
single He4 with 23.8 MeV of energy. How does this energy get released
and communicated to the world as heat, which it does, while conserving
momentum? That is the ONLY issue.

oversimplification, LENR and cold fusion are forever associated with
lattice and geometry defects in said lattice – this is a quantum
effect /extreme - multibody in the equivalent sense where gas atoms
react to changes in nano geometry. There is literature regarding
cavity QED that indicates these changes in cavity geometry violate
the square law and break the isotropy.

The human mind is able to imagine endless possibilities. In order to
make any progress, a triage must be done by eliminating the ideas
that are so improbable or so illogical that they have very little
chance of being correct. That is what I'm attempting to do.
In any case, several basic rules MUST be considered. Hot fusion is a
conventional 2 body-2 body reaction as is required to carry away the
energy and momentum. Cold fusion is a 2-body to 1 body reaction that
violates this condition. That violation MUST be acknowledged and
explained.
People are not free to imaginary any thing. Certain rules are known
to apply. These rules are so basic that they MUST not be ignored.

d+d=n+He3 and d+d=t+p
What about d+d+...+d=? We don't know. This is what many many
particle models ends up being. Theyare hot fusion. The only
difference it is that there are many, more than 2>, incoming nuclei
to fuse. You cannot do that in experiments using colliders, it is
too unlikely. So, you cannot say that cold fusion is any different
than hot fusion that easily.

Yes, people try to explain LENR using the behavior described in the
paper.
