I think msandford is thinking that you think that this system would charge-cycle a car more than once per day, and if you do think this, he's addressing it by pointing out that the car would be charge-cycled only once per day, or less given that the system wouldn't need to utilize every car on a given day. So this extra <= 1 charge cycle per day shouldn't "murder" the battery longevity (or at least murder is way too strong of a word) compared to normal daily driving.
Yes I was getting to that in a roundabout way. It wasn't very clear. You're going to have two charge cycles per day driving to and from work probably, and one or less for the V2G scenario. So it doesn't seem terribly murderful on battery life to me. Should have made that a lot more clear.
Probably more like ~20-30 charge-cycles per year, as it would only be used on really hot days where AC usage is high and peaker plants are needed to meet that demand.
