in 2018, so far Tesla has used 7,103,326 Kilowatt hours of batteries, 77% of 
all the batteries used in EV's (less China) of the 9,279,755 total
It doesn't matter whether you argue prismatic or pouch or 18650 or 2170. Tesla 
is outselling everyone else

 The problem with Tesla's batteries is not small vs large but Tesla has put all 
their eggs into one type of battery.  The other automotive companies are 
staying out of the battery business so that they can buy the best batteries 
available and not spend money on development.  Vertical business development is 
not always the best model.  At present, do what you do best and assemble a 
final product and buy from numerous suppliers is the current business model for 
the big automotive companies.

I see someone arguing both sides of a fallacious argument.

How can you criticize one manufacturer for unknown future problems who uses 
known technology, while lauding unknown technology for a long lifetime that 
none of it has even passed through?

We have all sorts of empirical evidence with small cells. MTBF behaviour is 
well characterized. But there is absolutely NO empirical evidence for "15 year 
lifetime" of "solid state electrolyte and synthetic Graphene" cells.

Personally, I prefer nickel-iron cells. But I'm an outlier. :-)
