Say using 20% more electrolyte would prevent insufficient spacing and separation of the plates. You get a safer/higher quality product but it's heavier. And maintaining the same safety with less electrolyte would involve higher development costs. There's a sliding scale where something is just too cheap/dangerous to sell at high volume to a general audience. Hopefully these high quality CT scans show the battery makers that people are going to notice when too many corners have been cut, even if there isn't a flood of reports of their product causing fires (yet).
