Do you have more examples for this "all"? There are a lot of regulated industries out there, and I haven't heard of liability exemptions for them. E.g., food is highly regulated, but there are plenty of lawsuits over that. Ditto cars. Or banks. Or airplanes.
From what I've seen, I think things like the Price-Anderson Act are less about universal liability protections for regulated activities, and more about special pleading by people with money. It seems to me that the correct response for "this is so dangerous nobody will insure it" is not "well fuck it, go ahead and the government will cover your losses."
