So they made the battery, arguably the most concerning thing to replace as the vehicle ages, ridiculous to replace?

At least they're not reusing names for entirely new things. Mustang Mach-e is so weird. New vehicle, new name. Good

Aging isn't the real problem. Batteries are being found to last ages and ages more than they were ever thought to. By the time it needs to be changed, these will be considered as antiques.

I think the real problem will be in crashes and insurance. The amount of cars that will be totaled for a fender bender will be nuts.
