I think. The indivudually 2.1volt cells have to go through the same 'me first, me last' scenario.
You're not grouping four 12v batteries.
You're grouping a BATTERY of cells which are grouped by sixes.
BATTERY means a a multiple of units.
So. 6 cells in a row or 4 groups of six in a row.... Same 'me first' problem within each individual battery of cells.

But
Rotating wouldn't hurt a thing.
Personally, unless they're as easy to get to as my behind the front wheels in the wheel well plan, I'd just live with the 7 year life span instead of doing the extra work for a 7.2 year life span.

At Scotties castle in death valley, they were, last I was there, still running the GIANT 1.3 volt batteries from about 1912. They don't rotate the 100 or so they have(thst I remember)
