With all due respect, that's a pretty bullshit metric. Most of the world's population does not live where solar works best, so you'll get only fractional output and much higher price to performance.

Your response is without merit. Yes, most people don't live in places with the best solar resource. But the cost of solar I gave there is so cheap (like, a factor of 10 cheaper than new nuclear) that one could be 2-3x more expensive than that and still not be the most expensive source of electricity per kWh.
