So while that does put a pretty strict cap on systemic thermodynamic efficiency, overall it looks competitive with lithium-ion systems.
The big downside I can foresee is that we can’t really expect to have nice things until our demographic situation improves.

We did a light GA aero powertrain trade study with a petro company in Houston over a year ago; they've been hard at work developing Flouride-Ion battery systems. Extremely promising and fully non-toxic. One of their prototype cells powered our 2hp infusion vacuum pump for over a month!
