That works against renewable resources, which should provide 100% or more during normal days. Which would mean you have to take off wind turbines from the net to keep nuclear going, that makes investing in wind less attractive.
Then you reduce the output of the nuclear plants. I’m not sure where you are getting that it takes them forever to start up nuclear power. You just raise and lower control rods to increase or decrease the heat they are releasing, which lowers the steam produced, which starts/stops some turbines. It’s not like the fastest system out there, but afaik it’s easily doable in the span of an hour or two.
Investing in wind doesn’t need to be attractive, it needs to be part of a government-owned national energy infrastructure plan that gets it where it needs to be and where it’ll serve the needs of the people the best
