>It is a non-issue. The vaults currently in service have had little to no issue containing the waste, simple as.

This is absolutely false, a Holtec cask is only good for about 100 years, which, in the context of super dangerous radioactive waste that will need to be managed and stored for tens of thousands of years is not even close to being a "non-issue".

Do we just keep making bigger and bigger casks like some sort of radioactive russian matyoshka doll to put the failing, now radioactive casks into?

You obviously either have no idea what you are talking about, or you are just straight up lying.

There is no viable plan to deal with this super dangerous waste.

Short answer is no. No we don’t. You can simply submerge the cask in water and put the fuel in a new one.
