As I read this, it's basically saying that a battery used for V2G power would spent more time at a lower state of charge which doesn't degrade the battery as fast, to such a degree that this factor outweighs the extra cycles on the pack? Seems like an extraordinary claim - I'd want to see it demonstrated experimentally and not just assumed based on a model (no matter how many times they say the model is 'verified').

They did run an experiment on actual batteries. It's still only one kind of cell, but they have actual experimental evidence:
