I don't think it helps anyone to dismiss the difficulty involved in doing that in 2025 vs 2004.

I'm not saying it's not possible, of course it is, but there is some friction and difficulty especially if you seriously want to compete with Apple, Samsung, Oppo, Xiaomi, etc.

Fairphone exists[0]. Nobody is in the market for either a Fairphone vs Galaxy vs Pixel.

There is also the Samsung XCover 7 pro. Waterproof, trivially swappable battery. You can even keep around a few batteries for quick recharge. https://www.samsung.com/us/business/mobile/phones/galaxy-xco...
