While I'm not a fan of some of the naysayers, here. There does appear to be valid reasoning behind their claims.

In researching the company's claims, I found the following:

The term does NOT appear in any scientific source returned by search. There is no recognized reactor design formally called an “implausible aneutronic reactor.”

Nothing in the search results uses that phrase.
• Not currently feasible
• Not physically realistic with today’s technology
• Aneutronic fusion that requires extreme temperatures or confinement beyond what we can achieve
And that matches the science:

Aneutronic fusion requires much more extreme conditions than standard deuterium–tritium fusion.
For example:
• Proton–boron fusion needs temperatures around 600 million °C, far above what ITER or tokamaks can reach reliably.
• Confinement methods like Polywell, Z-pinch, and dense plasma focus are still experimental.

Aneutronic reactor
This is a real concept.
An aneutronic fusion reactor is a fusion system designed to use fuels that produce very few neutrons, such as:
• Proton–boron-11 (p–B11) fusion
• Deuterium–helium-3 fusion

These reactions release energy mostly as charged particles, not neutrons.
That makes them attractive because:
• Less radioactive damage
• Less shielding needed
• Potential for direct electricity conversion

Implausible
Since no reactor uses this phrase formally, “implausible” is almost certainly being used informally to mean:
Not currently feasible
Not physically realistic with today’s technology
Aneutronic fusion that requires extreme temperatures or confinement beyond what we can achieve

People use “implausible” when referring to:
• Over-optimistic startup claims
Designs that violate known plasma physics
• Concepts requiring impossible confinement or temperatures
• Sci-fi-level reactors with no experimental support

🧭 Bottom line
There is no official reactor type called an “implausible aneutronic reactor.”
