But then they go on to say

>> Could it be installed in a cell phone, an electric bicycle, a cordless drill, a car, a house?

which indicates they're thinking of a physical size, as if the chemistry dictates a fixed size somehow - hence why I pointed out that mobile phones and grid-scale storage can both use the same chemistry, so the question as stated doesn't make much sense

It goes both ways. Of course you can put various battery technologies into cell phones, technically, but having a 500g cell phone with 4h of autonomy doesn't make sense nowadays.
