Nice weasel move. So, to re-phrase, which is a bigger failure, earth-bound artificial hot fusion "containment" (>$120 billion spent, break-even never achieved), or cold fusion (<$100 million spent, breakeven reached multiple times).
"So what's the problem with cold fusion?"
Lack of research funding due to the underhanded tactics of "high energy" physicists and their allies (that would be you and the rest of the skeptopaths). But despite your best efforts, LENR development "is" happening, and going commercial.
And the ITER, which will never be completed, will stand as a monument to the hubris of the high energy physicists.

So even if they get the money, they have no problem to work on.
