The point is the “energy well”. That is the elements “in the middle” of the periodic table are more stable/at lower energy states. So fusioning heavy elements or fissioning light elements move to higher energy states, so it will take more energy in than it releases.
What if I fuse uranium huh? What then pal?!!!?
