Yeah, I don't think inertial confinement is a practical path towards a commercial reactor, but it is interesting from a scientific standpoint.

Commercial reactors will probably stem from magnetic confinement projects like ITER and Commonwealth Fusion Systems, or possibly magneto-inertial confinement like Helion.
