No argument there.
Except that the higher capacity NiMh cells have proved to be less good at retaining charge, and have lower cycle lives than the cheaper older Nicads ....;-)

Actually the National Grid runs at a very high voltage to minimize the energy losses. Losses are proportional to current. A low current means the voltage must be high to deliver the required amount of power.
I doubt switching at high voltages is easier since arcing becomes a more important problem.
