I heard that Fukushima was problematic because non-engineers thought it would be easier cheaper?)

fukushima was problematic because literally everything in the chain of safety that should've happened, either didn't or was ignored, due to callous stupidity.

If literally any one thing had gone differently, there's a good chance it wouldn't have been that bad.
