1/10: Surprisingly, given the journalist's and the quoted scientist's credentials, the article is mostly wrong, or at least misleading, even in the context of accidental exposure, and certainly in a novel context of hypothetical (and feasible) deliberate managed exposure by selected and trained individuals.
The article sadly repeats and recycles vague but sensational received wisdoms published many times before online and in print, adding no new facts, figures, evidence or insights and missing a new frontier of human potential.
Rapid (Explosive) Decompression Emergencies in Pressure-Suited Subjects (1960s NASA report title) are not the only possible contexts to pose the question in the article's title.
