@Edent great article.

I’m definitely one of those “dudes” - to me it’s a question of scale - like most things if cheaper / similar options exist then it’s hard to push something economically.

I suspect that the cost to install and operate a home nuke outweighs other forms of electricity. There’s a lot of maintenance that goes into nuclear to keep this safe so perhaps these efforts only scale when we are doing it for millions of homes at a time?
