Hey all, I'm a bit late to performance discussion but one thing to add:

direct comparisons are hard because it depends on the whole composition of the battery.

Watch back Limiting Factor videos- Jordan covers it quite well. But basically it's not like testing a CPU where you just change one chip for another and run a few software benchmarks...

Imagine trying to benchmark a pair of shoes. Sure you can go and objectively measure certain characteristics in isolation - how bouncy is the rubber, how strong are the shoelaces, view much ankle support does it give you, how heavy is it ..

but ultimately if the goal is to help you run faster or play support better, the only benchmark that matters is how you perform when you wear them. But that will be a combination of how the particular shoes, the particular socks, feet, legs, ground surface, weather all interact with each other. Certain characteristics may be better in particular combinations.

its similar with anodes. It's not the "anode" performance that ultimately matters, it's the battery. The combination of cathode, separator, pack/cell format, application, environment etc all have complex interrelations that impact performance. So it's difficult to just create a benchmark rating for an anode product
