Steve, IMO you are mixing up power and energy now. Based on what DrewE and FWC said here (scroll down) I think I have it right that CCA is power and how long the batt can keep cranking is to do with its energy.
("Capacity" should be its energy IMO. Not sure you should say "reserve power" either. Maybe somebody can sort that out)

FWC's second para relates to my previous notion too, a low power batt with lots of energy like a deep cycle.
