I wonder what the charge-discharge hysteresis would be of these LIC's.
That may well be very low, even less than LiFePO4 cells.
Low hysteresis means hardly any heat buildup on charge/discharge, so no need to ventilate them etc. If so, these cells could reduce the heat buildup in a mixed pack by dealing with the short term high charge-discharge peaks.

Bet they won't come cheap...

For education go to people unlike yourself.
