The question is then whether it's cheaper to buy LiFePos instead of lead acid or to install more solar panels.
Yep. But also you need to run lead acid in a smaller charge window so you need more of them and when running out of space more panels might not be feasible - many variables in the whole thing, I don't think there's a universal answer, one can't really get around setting up a small spreadsheet.
Agreed - it's not that there are no space constraints at all.
