It is a new industry. Whores have been around for decades. You can't compare them because whores have passed the test of time. The Gigafactory has not done that.

That battery design might really change the world we live in. Solar needed a giant battery breakthrough to contend for making serious grid power.

Seems a bit too good to be true so far. Perhaps it is goodenough? I'll bet there are drawbacks like a high price. Excessive royalties - something.

It is Goodenough for him, but I think he is a bit out of touch with reality. I certainly won't fault him for that being 92 years young and a pioneer in the battery industry.

He made nothing from inventing the lithium battery. Living well and living long is the best revenge.

I suspect the university is quite involved. Other theory I will keep to myself.
