Most accessible nuclear power on our planet isn't stored as U-235 anyway. We can get a lot more by converting uranium into plutonium, which is heavily restricted because of how much easier it is to make weapons out of, or out of thorium, which is safer and more abundant but requires a different procedure to extract energy which has never been developed for commercial applications.
