not even that. there's LS-400s that have 1M miles / 1,6M km and still use the first engine and transmission.
the engine in my car (1SZ-FE) is known to regularly last 400.000 km. it barely has 100k after 20 years of being a grocery getter for an elderly woman, and the engine shows literally no signs of wear. you drain exactly the amount that goes in.
i guess we realized that reactors get old, they're pretty dangerous so you need extra staff, the spent fuel rods are about the most deadly things you can be around and they will continue to be for millions of years.
with the right fuel, fusion can be what fission aspired to be.
it's usually better implemented here. i regularly went to a real (the supermarket chain) once, they had one employee manning 4 self checkout machines and one of them took cash. they would open them during lunch rushhour, so all of the people who just wanted a sandwich were out of there within 30 seconds. worked awesome.
