Funny how people are overly concerned about cobalt in EV batteries but never cellphone batteries.

Funny how people are overly concerned about gotcha games online rather than considering what the poster is trying to highlight or say.

Almost like I'm pointing out that they don't actually give a shit about cobalt.

I said cobalt was an issue...

Not just cobalt for EVs, even tho I shouldn't need to explain that bigger batteries take more cobalt...

Things might seem "funny" to you because you're not understanding what they're saying mate.

If you're nicer about being confused, people may be more willing to take time to help you. But this is the most help I'm giving considering what you said.
