I'm cautiously optimistic! I think that nuclear setups are extremely interesting but difficult to the point where most folks just shrug and grab a blueprint - for something like Seablock or SpaceEx that's an awesome level of complexity but I hope fusion is approachable to the more casual factorioer.
Agreed, this seems more approachable, mainly because it is a layout challenge (which is a large part of the fun in Factorio).
The inaccessibility of fission is that it requires understanding the fluid system idiosyncracies. Maybe that will be easier after the changes to that system that will happen with 2.0.

The existence of nuclear power and nuclear bombs imply that for fusion power there exists a fusion bomb
