The last sentence is simply incorrect. Humans can detect single photons in specific environments. https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms12172

In real environments it depends very much on the brightness of the flash of light.

Plenty of reasons e.g. environmental, injuries/accidents. Maybe I missed a /s though…

Just given that other power sources are so much cheaper.

Then there is also the controversy of explicit and implicit subsidies. For instance here: https://www.ucsusa.org/sites/default/files/2019-09/nuclear_subsidies_summary.pdf

a report that shows historically the subsidies were enormous. Right now it seems a bit tricky to estimate - but I haven’t read the report in detail.
