I don’t find that to be a particularly compelling argument though. If you go to buy a lead acid battery for solar usage, for example, they give you the capacity based on a 20-hour discharge (or, 1/20th C rate). The same could absolutely be done for primary batteries
Lead acid self-discharges at a much, much higher rate than alkaline, though. It’s the reason alkaline batteries can live on a supermarket shelf for so long without losing any significant capacity.
