But with LG G5 I can carry a second or a third battery with me while I'm away from home. And I can swap the batteries within a minute.

Also, I have external battery charger for LG G5. I can use my phone freely while my other battery is being charged.

You don't face water probles every day but you face charging problems every day.

Also when my battery dies I don't need to wait someone to change my battery. After all I already chage my battery every day.

Battery cases are generally a better solution to this problem for the vast majority of people.

Most people use cases anyway, and space is at a premium on the inside of the phone. Not so much on the outside. Plus, battery cases can be used without shutting down and turning the phone back on.

water problems are less often but when they happen you're out of phone for at least 48h

Speak for yourself. I have water problems about as frequently as I have low battery problems.

It rains every day where I grew up. YMMV.
