makes up a large proportion
The article says, about Pu240: makes up a large proportion. I suspect it depends on what you are measuring relative to. As far as I know, the proportion is actually small, but the large spontaneous fission rate makes it seem large to bomb designers. Gah4 (talk) 23:37, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

Fissile or non-fissile?
In the text Plutonium-283 is called non-fissile, however, the Plutonium-238 article calls it fissile ? Geertchaos (talk) 10:32, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Good catch. is not fissile, and indeed the given reference did not support that claim whereas others clearly state the contrary. Both articles are now consistent and correct on that.  Complex / Rational  12:50, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
