There are other curious side effects, like a battery that is more or less sulfate proof would be nearly a permanent part of the car, rather then expendable "replace every could years".

On the good side, hey its cheaper maintenance, long term. On the bad side this could encourage massive vendor lockin, such that a conventional ford f150 with a custom f150-only battery that "should" last for the life of the truck could charge nearly anything they want for it...
