A battery, arguably along with storage, needs a very very good reason to not be upgradeable.

Old Nokia phones that are 20+ years old can still be used. PCs and consoles from the 90s are still perfectly usable with their original software. Smartphones have been 'good enough' for nearly a decade - why is there not a legitimate 'buy it for life' version?

very good? Nah.

At least the pendulum is swinging away from flashy and more towards useful with the MBP for the moment.
