Radiation emitted by nuclear waste can not be blocked.

Radiation emitted by all forms of nuclear waste (Solid Nuclear Waste, Liquid Nuclear Waste, Nuclear Fallout) can not be blocked even by tiles with 100% radiation absorption. The numbers are the same for Vacuum (0% radiation blocking), as well as 100+ tons of Hydrogen (100% radiation blocking), and for anything in between. I did test it with other material such as Lead Metal Tiles or Nectar, though I don't think it should matter. Hydrogen was just convenient for getting that 100%.

Liquid Nuclear Waste testing setup (I'm showing it here because it's hard to see materials in radiation overlay):

Radiation emitted by Liquid Nuclear Waste with 55% radiation blocking in 16.5 tons of Hydrogen:

Expected behavior is that off any other source of radiation like the Research Reactor or even the Dev Radiation Emitter. Even with just 73% radiation blocking 4 tiles away from the source of 12000 rads/cycle it ends up as only 50 rads/cycle.

Dev Radiation Emitter partially surrounded by Lead Metal Tiles also shows the expected behavior:

Steps to Reproduce

Either build the test setups I did, or just place nuclear waste in any form and try blocking its radiation with any other material. All forms of nuclear waste only emit radiation 2 tiles away from themselves so the tiles blocking radiation have to be close to the nuclear waste.
