I'm not a big "pun" guy, but this is smart. Address skeptics head on.

Addressing them head on would be providing verification of your claims alongside the initial announcement, not being intentionally vague and then using reasonable skepticism as marketing.

Addressing the claims one by one is still doing it head on. There's not some logic timeline for this stuff.

The slow drip of verification is a smart move IMO. It keeps them in the media for longer (Gabbo) and stops them from being lost in the other 1000 different battery announcement. Hopefully getting them funding I'm guessing they need to start full manufacturing.

That said, while this certainly is a promising battery based on the claims, I won't get my hopes up until there's an actual product I can buy.

If they did actually achieve something remarkable, giving the skeptics time to bury their own credibility has some advantages.
