Why? The battery swap only makes sense when you are on a road trip longer than the typical range of your battery(hundreds of miles), so it's not like Tesla owners are going to be doing a battery swap every week. Most likely, tesla owners will charge at home for over 99% of their trips, and maybe choose to do a battery swap if they are on the road for a long time and don't want to wait the 30 minutes for a super charge.
