You are technically correct, and that is the best kind of correct. I spoke from frustration, having grown up there. What i should have said was that there was no danger to the public, it was fully contained behind multiple redundant safety containments.
Its frustrating because i feel like that incident stalled nuclear energy in this country since then.
Three mile island did not have a meltdown, ffs. Not even close.

I wouldn’t say no danger, but the danger was averted. It did even release radioactive material, but not enough to be dangerous.
It could have gone much worse, but it didn’t.
