Good that you can be so certain. Do you have insider information?

Despite the scare stories from certain quarters, lithium batteries do not deteriorate drastically in storage.
And the battery life of these things is sufficiently variable that I doubt anyone could be sure of noticing a difference.
It's so long, in fact, that anyone who isn't completely disorganised is never going to have a problem.
