I've extended the post since you read and quoted it...
There are different technologies for different application, grid scale batteries are a very positive thing for a number of reasons, but they aren't designed to be used for six months of storage, and they don't need to be.
There are other longer term storage options available, and some of those might be good things to explore and use.
The point really is that Grid batteries do what they do well, but you're trying to suggest they do something else.
It's a bit like saying that bike is no good for transport because you can't fit a 40ft container on it.
