Actually a pretty interesting read about how lithium battery technology works. The big unanswered question is still why is any of this necessary?, but I’ve been interested in Android long enough not to expect answers from Google.
As much as I’d like to be able to swap batteries, that’s irrelevant to this issue. Even when the battery is replaced the issue persists because it’s a software issue.

Because batteries aren’t easily replaceable by the user.
They’ve not even said what’s wrong with the batteries though (have they?)

My point is that it empowers phone manufacturers to put us on this 2 year cycle and then further cripple phones beyond that scope
