Just listened to this on the way into work. The guts of it are that the donut lab battery can really handle the heat well, or at least at levels where lithium isn't ever tested. Still leaves many questions unanswered though and the slow trickle of videos is already getting old. They may be trying to milk the hype and PR over this but I can see it backfiring if they take too long.

Many comments in that video indicate the strategy for slow walking the technical details.

If they have a great new battery with ground breaking specs and energy density, that alone should be enough. If they lean into the “solid state” claim and it turns out to not be, that would be counter productive.
