Nuclear waste isnt that big of an issue.
That part is kind of overblown.
Hell, for nuclear waste from naval nuclear reactors, I'm pretty sure we still sell it to France. I know we did up to at least a decade ago. They just refine it again and keep using it.
If it's radioactive nuclear waste, that means it's still radioactive.
All you gotta do is get rid of the non radioactive bits and it's fuel again. By the time you can't do it anymore due to prohibitive cost to gain ratio, it's not a big problem to get rid of it, because it's not that radioactive
The above comment is an example of this getting waved away.
