The language in the article does seem to forget that plenty of early smartphones had replaceable batteries... Yeah, it might add some bulk, but it's not exactly going to be a major hardship.
... but it seems like a good reverse step to me. Any consumer replaceable part is a good thing as far as I'm concerned.
