Why would you stop it? This is certainly not like the H2 fuel discussions - not currently related to EVs. I liked those too from a philosophical POV This is a semi technical list - I don't get why a difference of opinions cannot involve a long running topic.
I delete emails all the time that I do not care about, or have time for. I have no sympathy for the urge to get other people to stop talking about a subject that interests them. Not interested? Then don't read it. This topic is pertinent, it is being carried on with civility (not that that seems pertinent), it is interesting and ideas are being presented and the answers important. You know the conversation will not survive off list; you would just be killing it whether you admit it or not. I still want to hear how intercalation id not working - in LFP cells I guess, but I want to understand that. I am trying to follow up on the provided information from contrary sources (to my own); it takes time when no specific literature is presented. If there is a problem it is that there is rehashing because long conversations have newcomers that may not have been present or paying close attention at the start.
