"you swap the vehicle" -- that's a large cost associated with the battery getting old earlier than it otherwise would have. Have you factored this into your math? If you have a $40k EV expiring two years ahead of schedule, the added depreciation cost should be in the thousands. Remember that battery lifespan isn't measured only in years, it's primarily measured in cycles. Dedicated LPO home batteries can be gotten for only $110 USD per kWh if you live in a place with no tarrifs or taxes on it. This makes a lot more sense to me. The only way I can see it making sense to use EVs for this, is if the battery getting old is rarely the main reason for throwing away old EVs. If that is true, then sure, use EVs as a home battery, since you're not getting a massive depreciation cost from doing so. But is it true?
