Being able to have a spare battery in case of emergency (or simply app train/bus tickets) is going to be nice. It's going go be exciting to see how apple will try to circumvent this.

I doubt they'll circumvent this. They don't seem to circumvent the mandated USB-C port if the rumors are to be trusted.

They already tried, given that the reason that they've held out for so long is because of one of those circumventions.

It's just that the EU is clamping down, and Apple is running out of time on that restriction, hence them moving over to USB-C coincidentally just before the EU would force their hand.
