Lead-acid batteries are amazing for starting an engine, and terrible at basically anything else. They're slow to charge and very sensitive to over-discharge: it's generally recommended to never go below 50% state-of-charge (so you basically need twice the capacity in the first place), and even one full-discharge event will permanently reduce their overall capacity. The fact that they're almost impossible to over-charge means they're never paired with a proper BMS so they usually aren't protected against this type of damage. Also they need to be fully-charged every few days, so they're a poor choice in an application where they're constantly cycled.
Lithium batteries in contrast only need a ~10% buffer, and don't care about being topped off except for calibrating the BMS in certain variants (the only reason why LFP cars want you to charge to 100% regularly), so you don't have to over-provision as much. End-of-life is being sorted out as we speak, recycling companies are popping up as discarded batteries from cars are becoming common. Some may even pay you for them too.
