These are lithium polymer or lithium-something cells which produce much higher voltage than traditional batteries, so they are not at all interchangeable. That's why it's smart that they are not the same dimensions. If anyone ever made a lithium-something battery in a traditional shape, bad things would happen.
You're correct about the 18 and 65, the 0 stands for a round shape.
