Based on yearly average capacity factor?

Since that incident storage has been scaling massively. How does a nuclear plant compete with zero marginal cost renewables?

Based on if it would run at full capacity like a plant would yes.

And no, storage hasn't scale at all yet, it would need a 100x increase before being useful for such events.

The proof is in the pudding anyways, if that works so well, why nobody does it?

Nobody does a storage based solar grid at a country scale.
