We haven't figured out how to control costs with nuclear.

Known costs of a new project make them pretty much untenable, and they don't quite account for spent fuel (not for the full amount of time it will be dangerous). There's likely solutions to storing the spent fuel, but we aren't doing them.

Hopefully regulators take a look at resiliency and do things to improve it that would take less time than building new nuclear. In Texas it seems a modest improvement in natural gas pipelines would do a lot to improve the system. A study estimating the relationship between cold weather and available production would probably be seen as worthwhile by even the most radical anti-regulator.
