Reason for posting this question - my laptop battery died and it turns out the bios gets reset every time I turn it on now.

Made me think of the old phones I have which cannot be repurposed without getting new batteries..

I guess mandating replaceable batteries is enough but IMHO it should go further

I was poking fun at the seeming desire for a physically tethered phone as to power a device without a battery, it would need to be plugged in.
