"risk of a wind turbine is, and always was, zero" seems like you need to check on how many people die a year while maintaining wind turbines.

Fukushima accident: corruption

Chernobyl: incompetence

Three mile island accident: that's a bit more nuanced than just human error, but nothing we haven't fixed already

SL-1: suicide-murder/human error

Those are the serious accidents. As you may see, all are perfectly fixable. Plus, current nuclear plants are more advanced. Now while you have on your mind these 4 accidents, consider that currently there are 403 in use plants and oldest one is over 60 years. All working with no issue.
