let us simplify the argument -
Antinuclear activist:
Power industry cannot operate nuclear plants safely --> shut down the nuclearplant.
Plant manager:
cheap power from nonnuclear sources + Cost of mandated safety inspections and repairs --> shut down of the plant. (hence, reasons are economic, not safety related).
The plant manager tries to weaken the antinuclear activist's argument by stating an alternate cause.
We have been asked to support the activist's claim. that is any answer
