I was surprised at the estimate of how much the production line will shrink in terms of plant footprint, that could (not necessarily would) mean battery plants going in rubblefields/tax holiday sites up here in the rust belt.

I don’t think so. Tesla plans to grow at least 50% a year for the next 10 years. Even with the increases in productivity, they will to struggle to make enough batteries and that includes increases in orders from the battery makers who supply them now.
