On the contrary, the only people who are being dishonest about nuclear are those advocating for a large nuclear build!
Use your own numbers here, actually run them, and you will see that nuclear is more expensive than solar, and indeed even more expensive than solar plus storage at today's prices for storage.
Your assertion that building hundreds of nuclear reactors at once will decrease prices drastically has been proven decisively wrong, again and again
But in contrast, building lots of solar and storage has proven to decrease costs of these technologies over decades.
Literally ever testable assertion in your comment is false, based on thoughts from behind rose-colored glasses from more than a decade ago. It's time to revisit the data and the numbers and see where the world's technology is on costs.
