Yeah, that was my first thought, about the argument against building new nuclear plants.

Opponents: "Yeah, in theory nuclear is better, but it's just too expensive and would take too long to scale up compared to the timetable of global warming, so it's not a viable option."

Also opponents: "Shut down existing plants, where that money/time cost has already been paid."
