The article is a bit alarmist but it is true that the nuclear industry has shunned paying the full price for the needed accident since the industries inception.

Nuclear boosters like to compare deaths/kWh. Of course excluding remediation costs and that for renewables the few deaths they cause are regular workplace hazards coming from people who has chosen to work in the industry.

The deaths/kWh for the general public not involved in the industry is as close to zero as it can get.
