While all this talk about Smartphone battery replacement is happening, nobody seems to ever talk about the laptop batteries these days also being a hassle to replace.

They aren’t a hassle. Few Philips screws on the bottom, 2-3 holding the battery in and a small ribbon cable in most cases. The painful ones are the consumer garbage peddled in stores like Best buy and Costco. Business laptops are incredibly easy to repair/replace parts. Get a secondhand dell latitude and see for yourself. CPU and fans come off with a couple screws, daughter boards usually very accessible. World of difference, and with the batter not just a clip to remove, it shaves about a quarter inch of thickness from excess plastic and additional mechanisms.
