Bubble fusion - yes or no?

news @ nature.com-Bubble fusion: silencing the hype -Nature reveals serious doubts over claims for fusion in collapsing bubbles.

It seems that an almighty cat fight has broken out between scientists, and Nature and Science magazines, over the apparent confirmation of "bubble fusion" earlier this year, is correct after all.

Seems a little like the "cold fusion" fight, which is still contains some mystery, as far as I can make out. What is it about fusion research that seems to heighten the emotions?
