how did Holodomor begin? Was the lack of food sudden, or was it getting gradually worse and worse? Did your Grandma remebers any children from her school or neighbourhood disappearing (I assume there were some deaths among young kids)? I'm asking because I read about the famine in North Korea, where some pupils were missing from school, as they were becoming weaker and weaker, and eventually died because of starvation.

They could, and in case of aluminum one could have three times as much charge by atom, while weight wouldn't be that much of an issue. However the size and mobility of those ions within the electrode and electrolyte material is a problem, lithium is still a leader.
