I imagine most of the longevity research is actually being done for the stationary battery market.

The fact it carries over to vehicles is just a bonus.

Besides the salvage value of a battery pack would be huge, so I suspect a battery would be about the last piece of a car to end up on the scrap heap.

The point is that the worst quality studies do assume that the battery ends up on the scrap heap, way before the car itself does.
