The lingering radiation is quite different between a nuclear bomb and nuclear power plant meltdown, one with an estimate of 1 to 5 years, and another with an estimate of 30 years. So it's kinda apple and orange, both are fruits, but it's like different species.
That's a good point! I hadn't thought of that. One note is that perhaps a "dirty bomb" might be more similar in effect to a nuclear power plant accident. But that's mostly just a guess, and is, ofc, highly dependent on many factors.
