Yes, I know the idea that people are never going to put more than 150k miles on their car is stupid. Yes, I know that the idea battery recycling is somehow able to turn in billions of dollars and one day bring in trillions is ridiculous. But the idea that battery supply chains will be closed loops is completely out of touch with reality. You would have to completely ignore physics principles like entropy and conservation of mass in order to think something this fucking stupid.
Well said, but they ignore even basic observable human biology so abstract ideas like entropy are no problem to deny!
It'll be like plastics. In theory you can recycle batteries, but the cost to separate the components is so much more than just making them from raw materials.
So it'll only get done by laws and regulations.
Which means more expensive future batteries.
