OFF BY A FACTOR OF A MILLION!
That’s not really creative license anymore! Indeed its difficult to exaggerate anything by a factor of a million and have it make any sense whatsoever. Its like making a documentary on the moon landing, and concluding with Neil Armstrong landing on Mars. Its like claiming the average bomb load of a B17 flying fortress in ww2 was 3 MEGAtons (about 100x the nukes dropped on Japan). Its like claiming that cars can travel at 60 MILLION mph! At that rate cars could drive to the moon in a few minutes.
Nuclear power has a myriad of problems, but the ‘factor of a million’ scare-o-drama of HBOs Chernobyl puts it more in the category of Nightmare on Elm Street rather than ‘drama based on facts’
