Lazard does not include the cost of storage to provide baseload power from renewables so it's largely a lie.
Admittedly you need much less storage (until a tsunami comes along). But pumped storage only costs around $1/watt. (The unit of $/watt rather than $/kWh because the dam is only a minor fraction of the cost of pumped storage, and it drops quadratically with size.) Storage + renewable generation still costs less than 1/2 of nuclear.

It is a straight LCOE shoot out. Storage may help at the limits but is a pure loss from a system perspective.
