Jack-

"That depends not just on WHAT has been emitted but also on HOW MUCH of it there is."

I entirely agree but I am far more pessimistic than you, perhaps, about what they will eventually be reporting.

Damage assessment of the reactor building via video can detect the most obvious damage, but not cracks in the primary containment or within the spent fuel pools that are still shielded from view.
