I wonder how "they" decide how much gets used for medicines vs all the technical applications
"they" simply put it up for sale... pharma buys what they need to make however much medicines will sell, and tech buys what they need to make however much batteries will sell.
I'm relatively certain the amount purchased by pharma will be miniscule as hell compared to what tech will buy. Lithium batteries are everywhere. You're probably staring right at one :)
$$$$$$
The “invisible hand” decides.
