Given that most EV's today phone home with usage stats, I'd be surprised if EV producers didn't know this already just from their customer base. Especially Tesla.

They probably already optimise their software for it.

Please investigate, define, and quantify aging and time-to-failure.

As an example of "last longer", how about, "A battery's maximum capacity drops below 50% of the original EPA rating is increased from 10 years to 12 years."
