Reliability to most people is a property of the system, not of the power plant.
Meaning, I don't care whether the power I'm getting got made by a power plant that can keep going 24/7, or sometimes gets supplemented by a battery, or there's some constant delicate balancing act going on between 5000 distributed sources.
So as a consumer I don't really care that nuclear is stable and solar isn't, the output of the grid is all that matters.
