do you have any idea how much fucking u-238 there is
the stuff is everywhere - enough, with breeder reactors, to continue supplying global power for literally millions of years just by extracting a few thousand tons of u-238 from seawater every year
the main reasons we (the US) don't use breeder reactors often today are actually:
1) fuel reprocessing was made illegal during the Carter administration because of overblown fears of nuclear proliferation (this single thing is why the US has any appreciable volume of nuclear waste requiring asinine "long term storage" schemes, BTW - that's usable nuclear energy we're just leaving in dry cask storage to decay uselessly); this was reversed, but it killed development of the reprocessing industry for a while
2) there's so much fucking u-238 that it has remained economical to simply mine more of it and do isotopic refinement on it - leaving ALL the energy from the "depleted" uranium (which is just u-238 with much less u-235 mixed in - still an entirely usable fission energy feedstock) unused. (this was another reason reprocessing was easy to regulate out of existence; nobody's anywhere close to running out of uranium to mine)

We are actually likely to run out. The current stocks last 200 years. If we had 4 times as many nuclear plants, it'd be 50 years. And with 8 times as many nuclear plants (the absolute minimum needed for our energy policy to be called "smart"), it'd be used up in less than the lifetime of a plant.
Yeah sure, you can also get energy from plutonium. So add 20 years to how much it'll lasts, it doesn't change the big picture.
This is why we need thorium. It's a shit nuclear power source, but we will never run out of it. So let's use up all the uranium and in parallel develop thorium for use in the period afterwards.

Honestly the oil industry has cause for concern, and if it's needed to grease the wheels they should be given a ramp to nuclear investment to diversify.

i really, really wish more people knew about the Bosch reaction, CO2 + 2H2 -> C + 2H2O. with water splitting, it's literally a closed loop for the hydrogen that has a net reaction of CO2 -> O2 + C
methane reforming just puts out more CO2 by reversing the Sabatier reaction. "carbon capture" is vague bullshit that currently doesn't mean anything except somebody selling you a pipe dream. what you need is, unequivocally, CO2 splitting.
the key to CO2 splitting at scale has always been efficient water splitting, as counterintuitive as that may seem. in fact, steam reforming (what you likely mean by methane reforming) consumes water - even though it seems like you're getting hydrogen from the methane, half of it is coming out of splitting the water. nuclear is rather unique in how well it lends itself to water splitting, as it can more readily produce the temperatures needed for more efficient water splitting processes (sulfur iodine cycle, for example) than any other power generation scheme, including concentrated solar.
it is also possible to split methane into 2H2 and C more easily than water, and use the resulting 2H2 to feed a CO2 splitting process, but the net process isn't CO2 splitting. unless you also do water splitting, it requires a continual supply of methane: while the Sabatier reaction yields methane, it's only half of what you need, as you only get 2H2 from CH4, and the Sabatier reaction is CO2 + 4H2 -> CH4 + H2O, so you only get half your methane-derivable hydrogen back if you aren't splitting water. now, this does mean each molecule of methane can technically split one CO2 molecule without water splitting by splitting 3 methane molecules (2CH4 -> 2C + 4H2 as input, CH4 -> 2H2 from the Sabatier reaction products; net cycle only requires one CH4), but even there your best bet for carbon capture is still getting those hydrogen atoms back out of the water, albeit only needing to do that half as much as a pure Bosch reaction system.

The energy requirments of methane reforming are much lower than electrolysis, hence why its so cheap compared to it. Carbon capture for burned fossil fuels with atmospheric air is retarded and I don't expect it to ever be very useful, but fortunately the CO2 produced from methane reforming is basically just mixed with steam so its easy to separate out and inject into the ground without sending it up the stack. They already do CO2 capture at some plants for this reason, but its more for selling industrial CO2 than any environmental reason. I will show you how fucking expensive purely water derived hydrogen is, assume a nuclear reactor can produce heat at 3 cents per kilowatt hour and convert it to H2 thermochemically at 50% efficiency. H2 is 33 cents per kilogram, your already up to about 2 dollars per kilogram with this method. Carbon captured methane reforming seems to be estimated around 1 to 2 dollars per kilogram, so its not too massive of a difference but you can see why I think gas will continue to be used for this. They might start using nuclear heat sources to drive the reforming process though, so they don't have to inject air which would make CO2 capturing easier.

2 things:
1. we've already got water splitting tech that's 60-70% efficient
2. a kilogram of H2 is a lot of fucking H2, approximately 500 moles of the stuff - that's enough to split >10kg of CO2. that's ~3 kilograms of graphitic carbon from the fucking air for less than 3$. that's... shockingly close to current prices of MINED graphite.
i think you're confusing what is being claimed - the hydrogen in all those CO2 splitting processes is closed-loop. if you want H2 as an end product, then yes, with current tech you want to use steam reforming.

Wait I am genuinely confused here, explain. How is the H2 closed loop? So does the process extract its own H2 from water without needing some external injection?

Bosch reaction: CO2 + 2H2 -> C + 2H2O
Water splitting: 2H2O -> 2H2 + O2
return the 2H2 to the Bosch reaction
Net reaction: CO2 -> C + O2
the hydrogen never actually gets produced or used up. apart from leaks, once you have a supply of hydrogen (or just water if you do splitting first), you don't need more - just more energy for water splitting. the Bosch reaction is actually exothermic, but very high-temperature.

This is cool, but the cost of electrolysis is still there, so you are paying for that form of hydrogen production anyways.
A potentially cheaper method involving gas reforming:
CH4 + H2O -> CO + 6H2
CO + H2O -> CO2 + H2
This leaves you with 7H2 and a CO2
then
CO2 + 2H2 -> C + 2H2O.
Leaving you with 5 H2 and a solid carbon you can cleanly landfill somewhere.

If the intention was CO2 capture from other sources, you could sacrifice more of the output hydrogen to drive more of the second reaction

Fusion has been solved for billions of years. There's a massive source of limitless energy so big it's impossible to miss and so bright it'll burn your eyes pumping out so much energy that a minuscule fraction of a minuscule fraction of it heats up the entire frigging planet. All of it up for grabs and basically none of it used. But let's con the tax cuck and sell him the idea that we can somehow make the most extreme conditions in a bottle with the rarest, most expensive material in the world to maybe in a million years achieve net positive energy in the milliwatt range because why the fook not.
