It is still incompatible to our current system. Allthough there are very efficient solution to recycle nuclear garbage and bring it on faster decay chains, this process is messy and nobody wants to really touch it. We have the capability, but there is little money to be made and it comes with insane liabilities.
Politicians would need to create a robust and efficient framework, but it is more lucrative to move the waste around with ever exploding costs and fear monger towards the public. We will never see this clearly.
Oil can be bought by the barrel and moved around the globe quite easily, while the carbon footprint can be blamed on any of the producer or you the customer. Wind energy and solar can be injected without much care and little regulation. Both can make a ton of money and need little care. A nuclear driven hydrogen and methanol economy on the other hand, that disposes of the waste with complicated processes, is expensive, complicated, thankless and nearly impossible. Especially with an ever changing political framework.
