Then, high pressure from the wave crushes the orb to an enormous density and temperature that fuse some atomic nuclei of the bubble's gas.

Now, if fusion really occurred, wouldn't there be an enormous crater, and maybe a smoking radius of obsidian, as evidence?

Or is this the 'user friendly' kind of fusion?

They are talking about a much more diluted brand of fusion than you are talking about. Instead of millions or billions of atoms changing from hydrogen to helium in a massive explosion, only a few do at a time, and the result is that not nearly as much energy is released at one time as there is, for example, in a hydrogen bomb.

It's a nice idea, if it works, but getting there is a serious problem. And it doesn't become "science" unless someone can replicate the results.
