Imagine walking in to your boss and saying "boss, the battery pack works, but some sweaty Europeans may be forced to sit naked in their uncooled apartments without a belt to hang it on. I think we should delay the launch."

This is a very odd take. Southeast Asians and Louisianans work in conditions that are technically considered "uninhabitable" by OSHA. The response isn't working naked. It is not a use case that any company would consider primary.

Also, you know, you can always put on a belt without clothing.

Not only Europeans... It is simply more comfortable, AC or not. But honestly I imagine I can just leave the battery pack lying besides me or wear some shorts or even buy some underwear with pockets (no way I'm doing this last one though) so it shouldn't be a big issue.
