As far as #6, it is disingenuous to count indirect coal deaths due to respiratory issues and completely ignore the indirect nuclear deaths.
For example, the article you link does not seem to account for the 2000+ deaths that occurred due to the Fukushima evacuation, nor those that survived but later starved due to their homes and livelihood being destroyed in the Chernobyl accident.
A proper model needs to take into account the economic implications of a nuclear incident.
