I can sympathize with the 12v battery woes. Even after I replaced mine, it seemed unusually easy to discharge it too far.
As for intentionally using the hybrid battery to propel the car, I avoided that like the plague. Too much charging inefficiency. The only case I could think of where it made sense to use battery power is if there was a significant regen event ahead to regenerate the spent power. Like a hill descent.
Get that EV mode/kill switch in there! You'll wonder why you waited so long.
