It's a SCAM that this is even a thing
If manufacturers were not sealing away their batteries despite obvious consumer preference to the contrary, a consumer would be able to buy the phone of their choice and choose to buy a larger 3rd party battery if they needed or wanted one. They would never even have to weigh the pros and cons of buying a crappy model with a longer battery life. LG has created a false demand by taking something away from their customers only to re-offer it as a feature. Shame on LG for even making this device. And shame on all the other manufacturers for screwing their customers as well.
First off, give LG some credit: They tried removable batteries in the G5 last year. It flopped.
As for your larger point, I really want to agree with you, but... XL battery options made a lot more sense back in the day. There are multiple argument...

phone specs?
whats it have for ram and processor? i have an original x power and the thing is a slug. the battery would last for days if you never used the phone. as soon as you did it would get warm and the battery would die as fast as any other phone.
