The Radioactive Loophole

The Radioactive Loophole

When gaming physics meets nuclear chemistry! The player is freaking out about radioactive water, but the game developer pulls the ultimate "well technically" move by replacing normal hydrogen with tritium (³H), a radioactive isotope. The player's reaction is priceless - that moment of "wait, I can't argue with that" realization. Tritium has the same chemical properties as regular hydrogen but emits beta radiation as it decays. It's like ordering a non-alcoholic beer and getting one where all the ethanol molecules have been replaced with something equally intoxicating. Technically correct - the best kind of correct in both science and gaming!
