No, actually I suspect that the U-233 bred in a thorium reactor would make a dandy weapons pit.

That may be; I don’t know a whole lot about thorium reactors.

It’s my understanding that they were considered to be less compatible with the US nuclear weapons programs than were uranium-based and plutonium-based reactors.
