Or they might not.

It’s not that useful. Not compared to making the battery smaller.

It would also have to be more than “a customer”.

Many people already see these as too expensive (the feature wouldn’t be added to cheaper products).

If there was such a big marketing benefit for this, it seems likely at least one company would done it.

With scores of companies and hundreds of products, we see zero with this feature.

Note that I’m not saying it would have no utility. What I’m saying is that the pros clearly don’t outweigh the cons since none of these products have thus feature.
