Right to repair is already possible on Prii's. The question is, is it possible on Teslas.

It is possible on Teslas (despite their best efforts). Check out some of the older Rich Rebuilds videos on YouTube.

Isn't it much more dangerous to work on these batteries?

400V or 800V at those amperages can easily be fatal even through a pair of rubber gloves.

If you follow the appropriate procedures it is no more dangerous than working on an ICE car. There are safety fuses you pull to disarm the system.

About the same level of danger as working on your own brakes.
