Pretty much my thoughts exactly when I read the article. The lead researcher of this project is bigging it up well beyond any rational scope, but they do have a novel invention here for dealing with dendrites in batteries.
Perhaps their technique could be applied to more conventional batteries, though I'm somewhat doubtful. Bismuth isn't exactly cheap, which is why lead acid dominates for most things.
