Why is nuclear becoming the energy darling when solar is so clearly better? Solar is already proven to work at a variety of scales, has little-to-no downside, and needs to only become more efficient and ubiquitous.

On top of what others said: More upside exists in the technology. Solar has maybe x2 room for improvement left (we'll never exceed 100% efficiency and unlikely to even approach it), nuclear is a deep tech tree that is maybe x4 in the medium term and up to x1000 in the long term.

I think there’s equal potential upside in both solar and nuclear.
