I don't see the logic of your second paragraph. Weapons production at present is nowhere near as widespread as breeder reactors would have to be to play a significant role in supplying global energy needs.

There are other concerns with breeders BTW. I long owe a diary on new reactor types (but again abadoned it last weekend seeing Jérôme's darkened mood).
