Compare the average specific carbon emissions and price per kWh between Germany and France and tell me nuclear is not competitive.

Nuclear is so competitive that they had to ban it in Germany to get rid of it.

You're reading from the playbook of bad nuclear bro arguments.

The implication you're trying to draw there is a non sequitur. That situation doesn't contradict what I said. Moreover, France is going to be dragged kicking and screaming into the renewable age because they can't afford to subsidize nuclear builds enough to make a nuclear approach work.
