It’s much more reliable and consistent at generating power. It’s not dependent on the sun shining or wind blowing, so you can get the full capacity of generation at all times, making it a better investment for a government trying to support large populations. It also takes up way less land to set up and run.
Though of course, it doesn’t have to be one or the other. Solar and wind can supplement nuclear really well.

Your last point is the most important one in my opinion. OP implied we have to chose between nuclear and solar/wind but it’s plain false.
And anyone who tells you otherwise probably has a profit incentive rather than an environmentalist one.
Careful who you’re calling OP ;)
