It's not as simple as saying "they shouldn't be connected to anything".  Beyond nuke generation (which is very much not connected to anything) you have hundreds of thousands of control system networks in the country and running each of these in air-gap isolation is not something that has been economically viable.   The number of sites that can be completely isolated will always be a minority, the rest we will need to do better with.
