ABML, Redwood, American Manganese and many other companies are already emerging with the intent to RECLAIM the lithium from spent batteries
Like aluminum, iron, copper and pretty much every other metal on the planet; you can reuse it. Recycling lithium is shown to be better performing than virgin lithium. See Quantumscape for details on how reclamation of lithium results in ~40% greater surface area; which implies energy density
It's still, as far as I've been able to tell, not cheap. I don't want to have a looming expense equivalent to replacing my transmission every 5-10 years.
