To me the options are simple:

1. Deny them nuclear energy at all costs which will likely further radicalize the nation and cause more instability not to mention they may still then go ahead with their nuclear program just to spite us.

or

2. We try to find a common ground to deal with them allow them nuclear energy and keep an eye on what they are doing to make certain they are not making nuclear bombs.

Either option comes with risks. The question is which is the one the has the higher potential upside.
the only cost/risk in denying them nuke manufacturing is in keeping sanctions in place.

the question we all have to ask is why is nuke manufacturing so important to Iran? they have vasts stretches of deserted desert to build incredible solar farms that would easily out rival a nuclear plant or 2. there is absolutely zero justification for them to have any nuclear technology at all. more nuke is worse not better.

and that's excluding their history up until the very very recent of having a nuclear warhead military goal.

we have them in a negotiating corner, they wouldn't even be at the table if the sanctions were not working. the deal could easily be destroy your entire nuke operation and go solar or we don't lift the sanctions.
