Well they aren't just anyone, they are a electronic waste recylcer in Cali, so they get these batteries by the truck load and are trying to keep them out of the landfills. I was watching a live Q&A on youtube from a well known DIY EV guy and the owner of this company was in the chat. He said he was recycling a semi truckload of these batteries every month. That's thousands and thousands of the batteries that end up in landfills if there isn't a market to re-purpose them. He was trying to give the guy on the youtube channel a 100kwh of batteries for a project (the Telsa Model S uses 85kwh for comparison.)
These are the same size batteries for example used in the Telsa power wall, meaning all these batteries could be powering a lot of shit still instead of going to the landfill.
