The Chernobyl accident occurred only 6 years later. If the cause was the same, that strongly suggests that the Three Mile Island incident was not a fluke.
The causes were totally different. Chernobyl was Soviet safety engineering, and then they were running an experiment to see how it performed in emergency conditions! wiki

“Tovarish Boss, that word ‘experiment’, you keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”
Why not? They ran the experiment, and now we know how it performs in emergency conditions. We learned something valuable that day!
In three ways you learn wisdom. By reflection, which is the noblest. By imitation, which is the easiest. And by experience, which is the bitterest.
Confucius, I think.
