He seems to have picked up the pro-nuclear vibe in certain segments of the internet, investigated it, and found there was no logical basis for it, but still found it hard to shake the feeling that it might somehow still be useful as a backup.

I think if he put the same effort into investigating the question of "is nuclear a cost effective backup or supplementary power source for ensuring security of supply?" he'd find out that it still isn't that either.

But still nice to see the truth slowly penetrating after years of distraction.
