These plants don’t run forever

Compared to solar and wind, they may as well last forever. We’re talking the difference between a century or more (nuclear) to complete exhaustion in just a couple decades (solar).

You wouldn’t buy a car either that costs[…]

I wouldn’t buy a car, period.

That is factually incorrect. The oldest reactors still in service are around 60years old and have to be maintained and repaired at high costs as safety relevant parts are heavily deteriorated.

With rising safety measures new plants get more expensive from year to year all the while renewables get cheaper and cheaper in production.
