The piece suggests that as reactors and digital systems evolve, existing rules may be outdated, prompting discussion about whether US nuclear regulators need to modernize their standards.
Why now: Renewed attention on nuclear power and modern technology is raising questions about whether decades-old safety regulations still fit.
