I concur.
Very little "science" is done here. The kid cobbled together a cookbook "fission" reactor and then hawked it until he won somewhere.
The disregard for anything but winning, the derivative nature of the work, the hurt feeling caused by "the man keeping him down" all reek of self promotion and playing the system show me an excellent and lucrative future in the status quo.
But that is the whole point, isn't it?
