      what’s wrong with AA batteries tho? easily swappable, hot spares, rechargable, interchangable with other devices

            Well, aside from being super chunky, these batteries have exposed terminals and can deliver massive current, and can catch fire when shorted. That’s why they’re typically not sold directly to consumers.
