Actually, Dahn has been doing battery research since the 1970's.
You must have misunderstood something.

So, given that Dahn never says anode or cathode, ever.  The Wiki definition
is ambiguous at best - is a battery a power producer or consumer? I am not
going to refer to the side that is lithiated during charging as anything
but an electrode.
