People don't care about feeding the grid, they want to be able to use their big battery to run their house when the grid goes down. Oops, this would kill sales of their powerwall.
I would love to have a powerwall (or two) which would give me 14-27 kWh of backup power for the house in a post- hurricane situation.
Then I would ALSO love to plug a car in to get an extra 80-100 kWh of extra backup power. So I don't think V2G will necessarily remove the need for the powerwall.
You will definitely still need the auto-transfer switch to use V2G in a backup situation... and it would be nice to go someplace in your car (perhaps to a nearby supercharger that does have power?) while keeping your house powered with the powerwall.
So I think it is very complementary to the powerwall.
