Easily mitigated by good charging practices (eg: charge when you finish a drive and the car/battery is still warm, not after leaving it in the cold overnight)

Wouldn't that also mean it has to be heated before driving, or regenerative braking is also off the table?
Yes, in very cold conditions, regen braking can be reduced/restricted until the battery warms up sufficiently. The car will warn you about this, so hopefully no surprises!
That's true, regenerative braking is mostly disabled until things have warmed up.
