But then aren't hybrids better than BEV, given a few miles of range?

Why make a 90KwHr battery for a car, if you can make 3 cars out of it. After all current reserves of Cobalt, nickel, and lithium are finite.

Cobalt is the most finite one of those, and once lithium prices go up it is likely someone will begin harvesting it from sea water
