The opposite is true.

- the current system based on intermittent renewables is the madness

- it is the intermittent renewables that are difficult to control, not thermal generation

- LCOE, not LOCE.

- Giving priority to intermittent renewables is not a law of nature. In fact it is idiocy that needs to be be stopped.

- Allowing intermittent renewables to externalize the cost of their intermittency to other, stable producers is a huge market distortion

- governments do not prioritize nuclear (yet). They prioritize intermittent renewables
