In my opinion, the Al/metal air hybrid solution makes a lot of sense. It will benefit the owners who travel long distance 2-3 times a year as some of you suggested in this tread. It does not make sense to me to swap my 1-year old battery with a 3-year old while I am on the road and cannot get my original battery back. I am sure Tesla is hard at work on this one (if this is the right implementation) and continue the supercharger strategy which I think is well thought out.
