If you are going to take a stance on a subject, that I don't necessarily disagree with, you have to have all the facts from both sides of the debate, not just the ones that suit your purpose.
Please post when you have collated the data for us, thank you.
1/ for a long time (relatively) Tesla has been incrementally reducing cobalt %s and the China M3 is now zero.
2/ others have the same goal.
3/ the low sulphur refinery production process has always involved the use of cobalt
4/ you referred to shipping
5/ collated data at 10 paces then
