All of your arguments might be correct, and none of them matter to public opinion and politics. Maybe if they were less transparent, there would have been less political pressure from Germany...

And I totally agree this is as dumb as it gets.

"none of them matter to public opinion and politics"

You are absolutely right. Which is why others way more qualified than I (climatologists, nuclear engineers) are trying to debunk those fallacious arguments and slowly people seem to realise. I'm doing my part.

The very existence of this article and its present on HN front page is a sign that this is working.

The fact that we know we can rank French nuclear plants by their transparency level is already seriously screwed up.

That's not what he said. That's not what the rapport said.
