Great contribution and excellent counter-point.
By your name I'm assuming there's no bias toward nuke power -- insert series of laughing emojis (never mind, I'm an adult male).
Nuke power is stupid and wrong on so many levels.
It's an unnecessary dangerous risk. It's dirty. It's expensive.
Nuclear plants are prohibitively dangerous and prohibitively expensive. It's the epitome of centralization of energy. Waste storage is toxic for thousands of years. And so on. Lots more to the argument, but it's not needed, is it? No.
The only arguments for its 'goodness' are shortsighted and lack honesty.

Dangerous? There are so many holes to be shot in that but I will start here. Look up negative coefficient of reactivity and get back with me.
Offset by grid reliability.
To achieve a comparable generating capability to most PWRs, a CFB or stoker fired unit would have to burn about 1.4 million tons of coal or coal/coke blend per year. The associated emissions alone exceed the danger of storing spent fuel in a dry cask or a cooling pool and we havent discussed the disposal of combustion products.
