Why is the boiloff rate so high, or it seems to be to a layman? Or is it the nature of the beast? I understand that the dewars are closed, so the boiloff should be minimum. Or the dewar's mechanism allows for this boiloff? Is there any reason why the containers should not be 100% boiloff proof? Thanks!
