Using resistive heating with nuclear electricity would be very foolish, unless you have a money wasting fetish.

Nuclear district heating would be very difficult to retrofit.

Hmm. "... if electricity is cheap enough."

Who said anything about retrofitting? Just build district heating nuclear plants.

Again, building one nuclear plant is expensive. But building tens or hundreds of thousands of heat pumps is certainly also and likely even more expensive.
