One last chance to correct the error.

It most certainly is not "everyone else".

The reasoning is that nuclear generation is a mature industry

Right... a "mature industry" that hasn't started a new project in three decades. Industries become "mature" when they have the infrastructure to be self sustaining and benefit from whatever economies of scale are available. If you shut down the big three for 30 years, the US auto industry will no longer be a "mature industry" regardless of how much money was pumped into them over the prior decades.
