Certainly, but PV isn't the thing to replace those.

If you agree that Coal is worse then PV, then you agree that PV should replace Coal.

Sure, but I don't think that's effectively possible. For example, Germany has had to restart coal fired plants even though they were deploying PV like crazy. However, nuclear power actually can replace coal. Incidentally, the good Germans have been falling for fossil fuel interests and getting rid of their nuclear plants.
