Currently batteries are replaceable, but due to their design it's unlikely to be worth the expense. Forcing them to make it user replaceable ensures it's easy to do, and cheap - so even if you don't want to do it as a recharge mechanism, it is still to your advantage to have it so when your battery does inevitably deteriorate you can swap it out at your convenience.
