I wouldn't be so sure.

First, CATL is a Chinese activity, well-known across industry to be fueled with the end products of industrial espionage- I wouldn't trust their shit to power a flashlight.
Second, even this group openly concedes that 12kWh/kg is purely theoretical at this point, as their current prototype arrays are only doing a tenth of this projected performance. They have a long way to go.
Third, hype is all good with a proven product that's market-ready, but when false hype on YT by third-party fanboys & influencers flood the space, it does far more harm to any advances in the state of the art than it does good.
