No doubt. But it's important to differentiate "inherit" limitations of a technology versus situational ones.

Plenty of EU countries have coast lines too.

Yeah, and they have floods, too (Re: Fukushima). I'm a proponent of nuclear fission energy (to complement solar/wind/hydro) but it has to be done safely. Hopefully in the future we don't have to rely on it (switch to nuclear fusion or something else), or solve the nuclear waste issue somehow.
