All of this is true. And these days most decent battery chargers can desulfate batteries to bring them back to ALMOST new. It's takes while though so it's not practical when faced with dead battery.I believe the Rivian batteries are AGM. SLA batteries can be AGM or lead plate. They have the same basic chemistry. Both the comparable batteries the OP compared the Rivian battery to, are AGM batteries by Chrome Battery. Unfortunately, you still can't discharge real low with an AGM as they will not recover ether. I have gone through many AGMs in my Jeeps, trucks and bikes. They are better at handling vibrations and are able to mount in any direction.
