Another dimension is weight, if price per kwh was identical these batteries would be be more efficient by making the car lighter. As well as efficiency and handling this presumably also affects the degredation per mile driven since you're discharging less energy to move the smaller battery.

True, and tires - either smaller (cheaper) tires or longer lifespan of those tires.
