But personally it just seems so worth it. LFP has far greater cycle count than Li-ion. That the battery is going to last 4x longer or more is a huge factor for me. The net-energy (across the usable battery lifetime)/$ is so much vastly better that I'm happy in most applications dealing with the weight.

CATL's cheap, inferior LFP would probably make more sense in storage.
