I’m not sure of the intricacies but this change was made to avoid the dead 12v situations. I imagine now as the main battery can now recharge the lithium one easily it keeps it topped up somehow to avoid this happening.
I left my Tesla for nearly 3 week holiday not plugged in and it was fine when i came back.
Will it still run that dead in sentry mode while the engine batteries remain charged and unused?

Yeah, I expect it should last longer, lithium has a higher energy density.
It sounds like a patch, not necessarily a fix. If it sat too long you’d likely still end up in a similar situation.
