He has no imagination, at least in any way that matters.

What I'd like to see is what would happen if thermonuclear devices were detonated at or very near the core, directionally like a shaped charge to get the core a bit hotter but more importantly moving faster. What impact would that have on the magnetic field of the planet?

Isn't that the plot of the movie, "The Core"?

I've successfully avoided that movie so far so I don't know 😆

You have to see it at least once. It's one of those, "So bad it's nearly good", movies.

If you like yelling at your screen, I recommend.
