Thing is, you can avoid "giving help" without being as *stupid* as this ep was.

Hell, now that I think about it, since it apparently was either "natural" uranium or more likely *enriched* uranium, they could have built a *dozen* nukes using that much uranium!!!

The "gun" type doesn't require that much precision to make, and doesn't need the fancy triggers and stuff an implosion device does.

All the tech for *that* has been open source for decades. (For example the old Analog article about how to build a nuke and "wake up the neighborhood")


So all this episode did was increase the *useless* paranoia about nuclear materials.
