I agree. Except were energy density matters, sodium ion should win every time. It's so much cheaper, less environmentally destructive to produce, and (if thinking very long term) can be made in situ in places like Mars one day. Lithium batteries will still have their place in handhelds, drones, etc.
The problem is that not enough R&D and tech investment is happening on the sodium side.
