4. Solar and wind are subsidized and get about 15x as much per unit of energy delivered.

Nobody would be building a solar/wind plant without subsidies. By your logic we should scrap all three solar/wind/nuclear and just burn coal.

Coal is one thing utilities love to burn subsidies or not.

Also renewable energy has received more subsidies than nuclear in the last 50 years.
