I still think the shortage is already happening, and its very convenient that it already happened during the "supply chain crisis".
You're also looking at this through the lens of lithium-ion batteries. These batteries will likely not be long term battery type of EV's.

Think of them as the giant big block V8's that gave no crap about emissions back in the 60's. Does that still exist today?
