Just read this linked article on Reddit. Seems like an interesting discovery. Basically it says that putting a high discharge for a short time on a full battery can extend the life of it up to 30%. The "islands" of lithium that form after years of cycling, partially responsible for the loss of battery life, can be drawn back to the anode and therefore back into connectivity.
Lots of questions, but I wonder if we won't be able to see this start being implemented somehow into a charge controller profile!

SLAC, Stanford researchers revitalize batteries by bringing ‘dead’ lithium back to life
Researchers at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University may have found a way to revitalize rechargeable lithium batteries, potentially boosting the range of electric vehicles and battery life in next-gen electronic devices. As lithium batteries...
