its not that nuclear is bad, but it's very expensive and takes a long time to commission, where the bridge between now and full scale renewable is on a shorter time frame. if the idea of using nuclear as a transition was made 10-20 years ago, absolutely. now, it's kinda too late.

so pretty much the most economical solution is to go all in on renewable from now on

Thanks for the response. That makes sense and I think I'm probably on-board.
