Reactors that aren't water cooled are fucking dumb.

Yeah, because it's great for them to not be fail-safe. Pump problem, coolant loss, coolant turns to steam = meltdown.

Because well designed pants totally don't have massive water reservoirs above or level with the reactor cores.

Fail-safe is better than approaches with separate safety systems to handle failure.

all data centers rely on water cooling....want to bring down big tech?

They don't all though... I was at a data center the other day, and their servers are running, but the water cooling towers are still under construction.
