All of those EV advancements were only in the passed 20 years.

The first electric vehicle was made well over 100 years ago. Until very recently they were considered wildly expensive and impractical.

You consider nuclear to me unnecessary and impractical because we’ve had the tech for 75 years and it’s still expensive. Yet nuclear tech is younger than EVs, and you discredit advancements because… reasons.

Your stance confuses me.

Why is it confusing? One is a battery on wheels, the other is controlled nuclear fission, creating steam to drive turbines for electricity generation.

It’s your stance that is confusing. I mean if you didn’t strawman on purpose.
