Well....
If I take 40 standard rechargeable AA batteries each of 3000 mAh and couple them in parallell I will have a 120 Ah battery.
Can I go a hundred or so miles in an i3 with it? Of course not, it only contains 0.048 kWh of energy since the voltage is 1.2V.
So same Ah rating but close to a thousand of the energy....

So no, it's not debatable, Ah is not a measurement of stored energy.
J (for joule) or kWh are.
It's how the laws if physics work.
