Tokamak Beta Values
Critique of tokamak designs (like CFS) for operating at beta ~0.1, which is considered suboptimal compared to beta ~1 in cusp configurations.

Commonwealth Fusion as Intentional Scam
Commonwealth Fusion Systems is deliberately engineering a tokamak reactor to be maximally inefficient (low beta, low Q) to maintain the status quo, analogous to the Fyre Festival fraud.
Tokamak Scam
The theory that government-funded fusion projects like Tokamaks (e.g., ITER, Commonwealth Fusion) are intentionally designed to fail or remain inefficient to delay practical fusion technology, whereas the actual secret tech uses high beta linear designs.
