Yes there is weapons grade screw up - but closing unrelated reactors on the other side of the world just because they are 'nuclear' is as silly as stopping trains until the tracks in Bavaria can be protected against a Tsunami. |

NONE of these reactors would get a permission to get online based on current regulations. Some are very simple BWR designs, some are near an earth quake zone, some don't have sufficient protection against relatively simple aircraft accidents, ...
The government also says that the reactors are shut down for safety inspections and then it has to be decided which of those can get back online. Which is controversal, since there was already a negotiated plan which of those had to shut down and the oldest ones had to go.
It is not silly, it is just about using the current political pressure to force the government to follow the originally negotiated phase out plan (which was also negotiated with the industry).
It has nothing to do with 'silly', it is a political struggle to force the current government to reverse its pro-nuklear policy.
