Khamenei not going nuclear when Iran had the capability achieved decades back is a crime no one will forget easily. He is the killer of Iranian strategic deterence esp when we know he has the absolute power in Iran.
I am not Iranian, so you have a better understanding of the situation and your opinion is more valid than mine.
However, as a third person observer, I think the calculus hKhamenei ran with is that if Iran can demonstrate that it will not fully develop a nuclear program whereas run a civilian nuclear power program as a contingency would be the best option for Iran. The civilian program will ensure Iran maintains a human capital and basic infrastructure for a nuclear program for a bomb in the reserve. This was his mistake. We now live in a no-rules world. Iran perhaps didn't anticipate this.
