Almost everything written is here is so wrong its hard to begin picking this apart. Nuclear is largely/completely safe in the developed/not-shitty-communist-Russia world. There have been 3 civilian/peace-time nuclear disasters: Chernobyl (USSR), Three Mile Island (USA), Fukushima (Japan). The death toll for Three Mile Island is 0, and for Fukushima its currently 1 (due to radiation) and even that death is being disputed in Japanese courts so it may be 0 as well. This is over decades in which large parts of the world are still running reactors developed in the 1960's and 1970's. More workers have died installing residential solar last year in the US than the total deaths from constructing/running/and dealing with nuclear meltdowns in the history of nuclear power in the US combined; and the number of deaths per 100,000 rooftops workers is rising by double digit percentages as rooftop solar becomes more popular. Current generation reactors produce significantly less waste and modern material science has come a long way in terms of long term storage. Which speaking of hand-waving, you seem to be hand waving away what to do about the toxic waste that results from both the manufacture and disposal of solar panels. The claim that they can be recycled but aren't is the same argument you are saying nuclear advocates make ("we know how to do it but haven't yet"). Lastly, I am not even sure how you go about justifying that renewables are far better when you consider the lifespan and power output from nuclear. This is the problem that renewable zealots cause in terms of solving long term energy needs. Renewables fall short in terms of being able to produce and transmit energy on demand, the manufacture, shipping, and disposal of a lot of renewables ends up with a higher carbon footprint per W of energy produced over their lifetime, and we are passing the cost of operating utilities directly to the consumer. Anyone who claims renewables are "ever better" than nuclear is not concerned above the environment, they just want to display their religious convictions about "green energy" - if you want to signal to your friends how dedicated you are forget the solar panels and just make sure to wear an AOC pin everywhere you go.
