Nuclear isn’t outdated — it’s underused. The reason deployment is slow isn’t the tech, it’s the red tape. Countries like China are building fleets in record time. If we modernized permitting and invested like we do in renewables, we’d see a very different story.

For the record, "red tape" is what companies call safety regulations they don't like. I'm sure more dangerous reactors could be built more quickly, but that's a bad thing.
