Great, now can anyone build a reactor that will be cheaper than solar + batteries?

Problems like these make me think of jetpacks or flying cars. It turns out that the future isn't what we thought it would be from the sci-fi ideas of the mid 20th century. It's a lot cooler in some ways, and far far more boring in others. (I want my jetpack)

No, because the cost of uranium wasn't the reason nuclear power is expensive (and anyway, this doesn't reduce the uranium price, since conventional mines are cheaper still.)

These are incredible and I hadn't seen them, thank you!

I'd rather have a teleporter than a jetpack. Jetpacks are loud and smelly. I'd rather just beam somewhere instantaneously, and go on with my day.

Or your clone goes on with their day.

Those lacking in imagination should be sure to watch The Prestige in order to have it imagined on their behalf.
