Really? I assume that they were just taking the normal emergency precautions. I think that brilliant theorist as you call him will be shown to be mostly correct. The affected reactors have been flooded with sea water and boron which will make them totally inoperable in the future but the crisis of a breach of the containment structures has been averted. There is virtually no chance now of a massive release of radioactive material like what was seen in Chernobyl. In fact due to the far superior constructions codes in Japan compared to the Chernobyl reactor there never really was that risk.
