Saying nuclear is expensive is circular logic because we intentionally made it expensive.
The greenpeace dolts who got it regulated into oblivion (in no small part thanks to the help of a bunch of useful idiots who equated nuclear power with nuclear weapons) with the specific aim of making it not cost competitive.
A generation later, the clipboard warrior dolts point to the results of the prior generation of dolts and say it's not cost competitive.
It's only not cost competitive because we make it that way. You could bring down the cost of nuclear substantially without actually changing the physical requirements of the plants themselves simply by setting the bureaucratic processes up to default to speedy approval rather than default to delay and deny.
