Please don't take my skepticism for a lack of enthusiasm!
In this case we have an article on a paper - peer reviewed or otherwise - and it's claims.
- data is limited, even taking everything they say at face value.
- my expertise is near nonexistent (like most here)
- predicting the future is hard
- past is littered with "battery breakthroughs" that has not perceptably(this is important distinction) changed life as we know it
So... skepticism it is.
I am absolutely glad this person got to do that science research.
I applaud the work taken to get here and wish all the best for them plus a bottle of [favoured beverage] on top.
I absolutely hope so much more research is done.
But until I perceive data that says otherwise, my skepticism of THIS particular article and it's ability to change any part of the world I am aware of (IE my own, my friends, my family, my social groups) remains.
In future, if a work colleague comes to work one day and says "I was affected positively by [structural battery thing]." New data = new judgement of super awesome cool!
