There has actually been a ton of progress with this over the last decade.

However, everything we have discovered so far either can't hold as much energy, has really limited charge cycles, or is far too expensive to use at scale.

Ton of progress?

I would refer to that as "research ongoing but no progress yet".

Current 18650/21700 Li-ion cells are a lot safer than they were 10+ years ago, less chance of thermal runaway and fires now.
