Well said. To get maximum performance out of batteries in difficult conditions needs a good BMS, and it's hard to get right.

For most domestic applications, a simple BMS like the one under discussion will prevent damage to the cells and avoid dangerous situations, and that's good enough. If you're prepared to replace the battery or intervene with some manual 'management' when it needs it, you'll be fine.
