User-replaceable batteries will require additional space on your phone's body. I'm not willing to trade convenience for a rare battery replacement case.

If you want - you can buy modular phones, pay for that, don't force other people

And I'll go and pay a couple dozen bucks for this work, like all normal people. But eco-activists are starting to say that eWaste is caused by non-replaceable batteries, not by the obsolescence of devices. No one will change the battery in an outdated device, even if it is replaceable.

eWaste is caused by all kinds of things and one thing that is easily solvable is replaceable batteries. I also hope that it will be forced for all phones, people shouldn't be able to pay a little extra to destroy the planet

I remember well the time of replaceable batteries, they were changed much more often than they should have been. More batteries are changed - more lithium waste. And I also remember very well how when the phone fell, these batteries flew out and were damaged, and I also remember well how these batteries burn from mechanical damage and they cannot be extinguished, because it is a chemical reaction.

There are pros and cons everywhere, so far I see more cons.
