This hand-crafted, gold necklace with diamond, ruby sapphire, and emeralds adorning the intricately carved centerpiece?
5 gold pieces.
That moldy slice of bread you picked up accidentally from a barrel in the bottom of a 1500 year old shipwreck?
..... I'll give you 3 gold.
Well, it'll be taught, just not as official curriculum.
I learned about a man from Nantucket at school.
Because their only experience with anything involving trans people is in porn, and there is a huge amount of trans-fem content when compared to trans-masc.
So they literally don't think about FtM trans people at all.
It's also why many of them view trans people simply existing as inherently sexual.
Knowing nothing about these specific setups, but knowing how charging lithium ion and LiFePO4 batteries work and my own experience with charging at different rates, yes.
It definitely reduces the battery life to jam that much current in and out of it, the higher rate you charge, the less accurately you'll get to 100% charge, and you don't want to overcharge or repeatedly undercharge it. This will more rapidly degrade the battery.
That said, with battery prices plummeting, and presumably only doing this when you absolutely NEED the charge ASAP, it might be worth it to have the ability to charge that fast.
Plus it would make for some sick EV racing, when you have set battery sizes and 10-30 second pit stops for more power being part of the race.

And the United States government, whose nuclear launch systems for decades had a default "0000000" password on systems so old they figured nobody would know how to hack them in person anymore, and they're incompatible with the internet.
It's disturbing to me that my high school hobby of fixing and operating old computers meant I could have launched nukes.
The misfits in question: you wanna take on "The Man" but your mom says you have to be back inside by 5:30 so you can go get a pair of JNCO jeans at the mall.
Look, you have been made illegal to exist as a person in public, so you can either die quietly like a good little slave or we will be forced to execute you in the street.
Oh, you don't agree with that and are fighting back? VIOLENCE! WHY DOES THE LEFT ALWAYS TURN TO VIOLENCE!
Checkmate, libs.
