> There's no efficient / cost-effective way to extract lithium from spent batteries for reuse in new batteries. We might in the future but it would require some scientific advances + expensive commercialization to scale up.
It's already 95% efficient.
No fundamental scientific advances are needed.
It's already being scaled commercially.
