Am I the only one who don’t like the EU replaceable batteries regulations? The phone will soon be made worse for zero environmental benefits.

The EU is basically mandating that phones have to be thick and cannot be water resistant 🤦♀️

I am fine with slightly thicker phone if the regulation could indeed reduce electronic waste. But there is no logical reason it is the case. They could have just mandate manufacturers to service batteries for free for 6 years which incentives easier repair and better battery tech, without crippling the design.
