BEV battery technologies changing fast
GM's new battery news is exciting Great that they went outside the box in form factor, but the risk as always...will this become a commodity level form factor...AKA Beta vs VHS One of the why's ...

Ok...now move away from just looking at the batteries and now look at these 2 batteries within a controller managed system as in your analogy...AKA in a car
The Tusk lithium battery would have the controller switch off the battery as you said...but a saline battery's controller can continue to drain that battery. Thereby providing even more milage than a regular, wet lithium battery
Looking like the transition from wet lithium to solid state with Samsung announcing a solid state battery for their up coming cell phones

Panasonic has some news articles on solid state batteries and publicly announced a partnership with an automotive OEM
I expect more auto OEM'S to partner likewise.
Hope they get together and settle on a family of standard form factors

The dominance of lithium-ion batteries may be coming to an abrupt end if Samsung's latest prototype solid-state battery makes it to market.
Snip...
Samsung's researchers and engineers are focused on continuing to "develop and refine" solid-state battery materials and manufacturing with a view to first using them in electric vehicles.
