Someone's having an existential crisis about our energy infrastructure! Despite all the sci-fi promises of nuclear fusion (literally recreating the power of the sun!), the hard truth is we're still using the same basic steam engine tech from the 1800s. Fusion reactors would indeed heat water to create steam to spin turbines... just like coal, nuclear fission, and natural gas plants do now. Revolutionary power source, same old steam-powered turbine. It's like inventing teleportation but still needing to take your shoes off at security.
