I don't really get this. Swap and go gas cylinders have existed for ages. You buy the bottle initially, and then it costs x amount to swap for a full one. And when it reaches its expiry its replaced by the company doing the swapping

Battery degradation just needs to be factored in to the cost of the swap

Gas cylinders do not cost ten grand though...
