"Dont disturb or inhale the soil/dust" is a big deal. For a transitory visit, you can wear a mask and hike in on foot to be pretty darn safe. You're not ingesting dust or soil, so you're not being exposed to alpha radiation.
Habitation is another matter entirely. You cant wear a mask 24/7/365. Which means you're at risk of exposure to alpha particles, which will kill you.
You also need to disturb the soil and dust for building and road construction or maintenance to inhabit the area.
Radiation is also highly dose dependent. Your body can repair from a transitory visit. Living there...the cellular damage accumulates through generations of cells.
Is that why they immediately rebuilt and inhabited Hiroshima and Nagasaki - because the Mic/ msm tallking head fear porn is just that, completely overrated kabuki nonsense akin to manmade climate change.
Hiroshima and Nagasaki were airburst explosions. More destructive of buildings, but leaves less radiation behind because basic physics. Radiative power decreases at the square of the distance. Hence, habitable relatively quickly. Chernobyl crapped radiation everywhere, and then spread directly radioactive materiel all over the place.
For a layman's explanation, think of an incandescent lightbulb on your ceiling. Feel the heat? Not from 10' away. Now blow up the lightbulb. There will be shards of glass all over the place.

Same situation placing a bulb on the ground and exploding it - clearly the dangers of fallout have been way over hyped by the same groups that brought use 'covid fear porn'.
