"what constitutes an improvement in SQ and is a battery really better than a good regulator?"Your question would be answered by listening!
"When feeding a circuit with a battery, there is self noise from the battery itself to consider, if there is no further bypassing."
At such low currents as are drawn by digital ICs (usually in mA), the self noise is likely to be very minimal from a battery that can deliver 60Amps continuously & 120Amps instantaneously.
"When one trickle charges a battery which is providing power, there is the situation where discharge and charge chemistries are taking place at once. Is this good? Who knows."
Try it & see if it affects SQ.
As to long term reliability of batteries - just look at electric vehicles which use exactly the same batteries - are they reliable?
But I like your approach to issues - look for the weaknesses first - it's the approach I use too!
