Seriously! I'd be more likely to buy a LiFePO4 car because I know the pack will last basically forever. I don't need incredible range, especially since the supercharger network exists, so that's a pretty sweet deal.
Be nice if it was an option you could order, but whatever.
Be even nicer if some non-Tesla cars would offer it.

Handling the electricity's just as risky as any other high capacity pack (electrocution and dropped wrenches exploding into plasma when they short the pack and so forth) but at least making a battery management mistake or accidentally drilling a hole in a cell isn't automatically an unstoppable fireworks show in your garage.
