Which risk during deuterium-tritium pellet fusion increases from non-uniform D-T ice layer formation?

💡 Explanation

Reduced implosion symmetry arises because non-uniform ice layers cause uneven ablation during compression; therefore, fusion yield decreases due to inefficient energy coupling, rather than enhanced heating or instability suppression, without symmetric implosion.
