What data have you found regarding superiority of the Tesla Model 3 battery pack vs the Bolt.

From my research, the Leaf is far behind, but the Bolt and Model 3 seem very similar almost to the point where I'd guess driving style and heater usage would make up the difference.

I was basing that concern mostly on bad reports of the Leaf battery, good reports of the Tesla battery (someone put together a data set of range loss vs mileage) and lack of data on the Bolt.

I haven't seen data yet on the Bolt. The other child comment suggests it's favorable, though. If new data shows the Bolt as having similar longevity to the Tesla then it's more of a contender for me, although I don't think highly of GM or their cars in general.
