People keep asking about setting a car battery on a concrete floor somehow ruining the battery.
Here is the final answer on the subject.
I have the 1930s Popular Science with the original tip in it (but don't ask me which issue). The auto tip was:
"Leaving a car battery on a concrete floor will ruin it."
I have seen three concrete floors ruined by leaving car batteries on them. Acid vapors ate away at the concrete.
That "it" in the auto tip has too many antecedents.

Oh my, I better get the half dozen I have sitting in my shop, and take them to the recycle facility.
