Good of you to point out that the nuclear industry is in this together and will benefit of each other's successes.
This is why e.g. Westinghouse's legal threats to KHNP over old licence issues are self destructive. There aren't many AP1000 customers because the Western nuclear industry has not performed well in the last 20 years, not because of competition from KHNP. The only way to get new customers is by someone showing that you can build NPPs in the 2020s in time and on budget. The more vendors try, the higher the chance someone succeeds.
