I'll steelman the anti-nuclear case: if someone can solve gridscale & microgrid batteries at the right mix of raw material costs, installation costs, and performance (both capacity and long-term maintenance), then you'd have a more decentralized & resilient grid than even SMR nuclear could provide. But the opposition to nuclear has been a mostly a morass of regulatory hurdles leading to cost inflation and then this being used as Kafkaesque "why are you hitting yourself?" evidence of why nuclear is not viable.
