I was quoted $15k in a Tesla service center for a Model 3 battery replacement, with parts and labor.

Wait another year. CATL is destroying the battery market with their new LFP and sodium batteries. Prices are collapsing.

Doesn't sound like a market being "destroyed" to me, it sounds like a market being a market.

Maybe that would have been a better way to phrase it. I meant it in a positive way.

Sodium will take 15 years to catch up to LFP prices. Stop consuming hype.

wasn't CATL blacklisted by the US govt?

Anything good for the EV market will be blacklisted by the US govt
