Well, it's bad, but it's not THAT bad.
By your estimate, if I'm feeding 50 watts to the battery (which I am, on a regular basis), then I'm actually putting out 500 watts! I'm not quite that athletic.
I'd say we're looking at more like 50% - 60% efficiency, not 10%.

Agree with the rest of your points though.
