I think that's very likely.

Definitely possible. I'm no expert on battery construction, but I do know that
one of the variables is simply how much dead space is left below the grids.
Over time and usage, this space gradually fills with conductive debris and when
it reaches the bottom of the grids, it shorts that cell.
