Get a clue. The fact is that there is no accepted solution for the
disposal of spent nuclear fuel in the US. That makes nuclear power
problematic.
Even the French have managed to find a way. And the Navy has
been using nuclear power for decades without an incident.
For certain values of "incident". There are two US Navy reactors lying on
the bottom of the ocean amidst the wreckage of the submarines in which they
were installed. On the other hand they've been there for more than 40 years
and nothing horrible has happened.
What's 'problematic' about nuclear are the politics.
Bingo.
