PV has improved in cost/W by nearly three orders of magnitude since it was introduced, and by an order of magnitude since 2010.

Nuclear fans could only dream of this rate of improvement.

Nuclear doesn't work in the sense of being competitive. It's behind and falling farther behind with each passing day.

The best time to have given up on nuclear was decades ago. The second best time is now.

Nuclear doesn't need this rate of improvement, because it was always cheap.

Empirically false.

Also: if it weren't competitive, Germany wouldn't have had to outlaw nuclear, it just would have disappeared on its own.
