Good point, I agree entirely. It's clear that nuclear power needs to be under the control of responsible governments, built in safe locations (i.e. not on fault lines, not in tsunami zones), and needs solid maintenance budgets.

All of these things are solvable problems, but if we don't solve them before all the current nuclear plant techs age out, we won't be able to apprentice people and keep the culture of solid maintenance alive. At that point, they really do become an albatross.
