What luddites fail to grasp as they rant on their pocket supercomputer made possible only by lithium ion battery technology is that power storage is the future regardless of EVs. Everything technology based in the last two decades has needed higher and higher density power cells. Smart phones ,tablets ,laptops ,medical devices simply could not exist without the power density of lithium ion cells no other prior technology has anywhere close to it’s power density. New higher density cells are coming it’s a trillion dollar industry that the world literally runs on. New batter tech is coming regardless of EVs they are along for the ride. Drones , AI robots , humanoid worker robots all need very high density power cells, every consumer electronics device as well.
False comparison.
And wanting the continuation of ICE technology is not Luddism.
