For this to work, every aspect of the simulation would
have to match up with real world circumstances.
...which would mean no secrets.
...or weapons that, when used, obviate many degrees of
secrecy, like nuclear weapons. 2004 study found that for
each extra inch of height
above average, someone could
expect to earn per working

PV and wind are perfectly suited toward essentials because they are sources of energy we'll never feel guilty about. We should use and perfect methods of energy extraction that are conscionable, so that we have ideals methods of providing for ourselves.
Meanwhile, to produce surpluses, and exploit gains for experimental luxuries, use riskier methods. This balances the premise of the risk, such that you don't push the risk taking too far, out of desperation for a necessity. Rather than worry about a power failure at a hospital, accept a negligible decline against production targets at a plant, and temporarily shut down the pile, for safety's sake, whenever needed. No?
