Every other company on this planet has figured out how to put moduler batteries into their devices. Is the modular battery going to go the same way as the 2nd mouse button?

It's a good analogy, because in my experience, the average Porsche owner who buys new is the kind of person (I'm tempted to say "elitist shithead") who has no problem paying 2 grand for the dealership to replace a battery and thinks it's perfectly fine as long as it has the logo on it. The average mac user I've seen is the kind of person (I'm tempted to say "brainwashed hipster") who thinks that Apple can do no wrong and makes decides from among competing products based on which one has the logo they're loyal to.
