No. But I want it to be. Nuclear is the energy technology that I am rooting for most to have a breakthrough which lowers costs and increases EROI. The reason is that uranium is so dense that it gives us a hope of maintaining our standard of living as well as bringing third worlds out of poverty.

Splitting hairs about nuclear versus renewables is a navel gazing exercise or a method to sow confusion and delay.

If you think debating the difference between nuclear and renewables is merely splitting hairs then you have a much lower understanding of energy, energy technology and energy economics than I was giving you credit for (I was giving you credit for a lot, even if it is masked with a bias).
