Well, with your wealth of good/correct info, the oil is still spilling.

While nuking may not be the best course of action, go read that article on the oil drum about possible consequences of this. Relief wells only have about 60% chance of working due to structural damage below seafloor.

They said it'll take about 30 years for the well to deplete and there's not much we can do about it.
