I'm not up to date with the latest developments in C++ but would't it be straightforward to do something like "#pragma pointer_safety strong" which would force the compiler to only accept the use of smart pointers or something along those lines. Was anything like this proposed so far?

And places where they can be damaged by human actions as well.
That leaves so many places to build reactors, right ?
I think human actions are easier to predict and prevent than natural disasters. Earthquakes are the biggest deal breakers.

I think a good exercise for the reader is to reflect on why they were ever against nuclear power in the first place. Nuclear power was always the greenest, most climate friendly, safest, cheapest (save for what we do to ourselves), most energy dense, most long lasting, option.
I remember the anti-nuclear fever went viral in 2011 after the Fukushima nuclear accident caused by the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami. I think the correct lesson to be learned from that experience is not to built nuclear power plants in places where they can be damaged by natural disasters...and not to call for all nuclear power plants around the world to be shut down.
