The Fukushima quake was a truly extraordinary outlier though!

4th biggest quake ever recorded in history hit at the exact spot where the tsunami could overpower the protective wall at the reactor. Yet nobody died from the radiation.

Meanwhile the 20k people who died in the tsunami are forgotten. No one demands we stop building cities by the ocean.

You are wrong. They are not forgotten.
