An argument against giving N. Korea an MSR

In earlier posts on the subject, I posited that the Norks may take that deal.  They'd be crazy not to.  Here's why.  If the molten-salt reactor is better, they may be able to make MORE bombs.  More bombs and faster.  If it doesn't work, they lose nothing.

I didn't think of this possibility.

If the MSR is technology that you don't want to give away, don't you think we should have it for ourselves?

If it is junk, then you should want to give it to the Norks, because they can't do anything with it anyway.  If it is junk, what's the harm in trying to find out if it is or it isn't? ( At home, that is.  NOT in N. Korea)
