Still, if I were going to fast charge a lot, I'd prefer LFP.
LFP tends to be used on the lower-range EVs, which are the ones we need to fast charge more often (bonus!).
If I were buying a used EV, I'd also feel batter about an "iron-clad" LFP battery. It keeps going and going and going...

Automakers design battery management systems to protect against early death (e.g. by slowing charging or using less of the battery's capacity), so our standardized lab tests don't necessarily mean that fast charging your NCA/NMC EV will kill its battery.

If giant universities would step up they'd be extremely formidable adversaries.
Even other than the ones with endowments, they have extraordinary cultural capital and the love of alums.

so far I'm seeing a lot of universities respond to grant terminations with
"oh I guess now we don't have that grant anymore"
instead of
"your assertion of a grant termination is executive overreach, see you in court"
So, universities: respectfully, what the fuck?
