To save costs and weight on battery, sure. I don't know Chinese use cases, but in continental Europe many machines don't run full 500km every day, even many private made less then 100km per day, so they don't need 500km range

BTW, few things from professional exp: 1. Cheap components (most probably you will use such in 99% cases) are +-5% from claimed parameters (sometimes appear batches with more than +-10% difference). Also, unfortunately, cheap components par

I sure mean not just brand, but other legal entity. Nintendo don't have much spare resources to make through research and to release that those new entities are owned by already known others and these others own more than said.

Cause could be regulations, or some bigger brand strict rules. For example, anti-monopoly regulators looking very formal, when somebody appear to share more than 30% of market, then just turn on prohibitively high taxes. Other example, Nint

Also exists some chemistry, which make air conductive at much less voltage. Also exists tricky schemes, where something very similar to AM radio transmitter, made air closer to ignition, and then need much less voltage to make plasma.

As I understand matters, first spark make air conductive (could say, it becomes plasma), and than for some time you need much less power to light plasma. Very similar physics behave in classic neon lamps - they use short high voltage impuls
