Neat, a point by point breakdown. Love those. In no way are they fingernails to the blackboard of internet discussion.

Lets just get this over with:

That’s just not true.

Okay it's pretty clear you're very unfamiliar with this subject.

and no explanation why

The entire rest of my comment explains why. That's what the whole comment is about. "Why" is the entire thesis of the comment. It is the comments entire raison d'être. In summary: the inefficiencies inherent to distributed implementation, the lack of service infrastructure, the short lifespans of the high-density battery chemistries needed in residential installs, etc.

In a cost exercise if the batteries last longer than the payback period they are worth it. Which is the case so that point is meaningless.

I don't really care, though. It's got nothing to do with the points I was making, which is why I didn't address it. It's largely irrelevant.

Makes no sense because the struggles the grid currently has with solar will be offset. Home batteries reduces demand on the grid and internalise [sic] production and demand more into the house.

Okay, no. This is not how residential demand or load balancing or power infrastructure works. There's components you're assuming exist that would have to run on magic to be safe (some kind of automatic interlock cut-in), and even those would absolutely devastate the grid by constantly adding and removing whole residential loads at random.

Your bias against Elon is just limiting your world view.

Oh buddy... buddy no. Come on.

Chemistry has nothing to do with electrons on the wires so that doesn’t make sense.

My gaster is well and truly flabbered. I honestly don't know what to say in response to this.


Phew, that sure was a lot wasn't it? Please please please take the time you'd use to write a response to this comment and go watch some electroboom videos instead, he's very entertaining and a great educator of the concepts at play here.
