Not really making nukes take a ridiculous amount of energy and you only get to use it once where the energy to create ITER gets split across its operating lifespan.
Further fission here requires a fission first stage which represents a huge additional energy input.
ITER is supposed to be a 10-20x return on energy provided which mean it may or may not be better depending on the specific bomb design, but it’s not massively better.

GPT pro says 3 to 30x energy release compared to the entire supply chain input for a megaton class weapon.
I trust the argument. You can look into it yourself. Long story short, it is massively energy positive compared to controlled fusion.
