Again yes

I did not ask you or anyone to do any math; the question is so simple that math is not needed to answer it. In fact I wrote it that way in the hope that you would understand how to define the problem from my perspective.
Since you did not understand the question I will let you know the answer.
Box number one has cooled down to the ambient temperature and only very small amount of radioactive element may remain in it; so it is the coolest.
Box number three will have “natural” radioactive material in it therefore it will be warmer than the first one.
Box number two will be warmest of the three boxes because it will continue to emit heat/energy (decay heat) for many years.
-
The decay heat is a residue fission reaction that continues after the “forced and controlled” chain reaction has already ended.

To be continued; provided that you refrain from using words such as “crank and troll.”
