I still assert that the ni-cad charging "wisdom" is myth, period. And
you're still welcome to disagree, if you do. But you won't have science
on your side.

Well seeing how you already quoted Wikipedia on a Li-ion battery it
only seems fair to point you to the disadvantages of a Ni-Cad on the
same site.

Look at "usage patterns" and "false bottom"

Besides the quoted stuff anybody who has used Ni-cads throughout the
years (25 years and counting for me) knows that they can be finicky
as far as charge and recharge parameters are concerned.
