Otherwise, I've got mixed feelings about needing a screwdriver to swap batteries out.

I know with my vision, a tiny screw hits the ground at my feet, it might as well have fallen into a black hole.
most of my lights, including head and tail require screwdriver excluding the Cygolite Metro from 18 or so years ago and the Cygolite Mitycross. Even the pop off back of my Planet Bike Super Flash requires a screwdriver to get the back off and that battery is not rechargeable! gee what a headache to have to reach for a screwdriver...
