>In all honesty, A123 have to do fast recharge, if they didn't no one would be interested

Don't want to start a debate, but there are a few more advantages worth mentioning
. No need for an LVC or balancer
. Shorter Constant Voltage phase while recharging
. Will last a few hundred cycles longer
. Easier to reconfigure/assembling
. More secure: No fires, explosions, puffing ...
. I'm not worried when i subject A123 cells to water/snow
and so on ... simply fool proof

Of course lipos will remain unmatched when it comes to performance/wheight ratio.
