Coming soon from Apple. Screws that require a 4D tesseract shaped screwdriver to undo.

But if you can undo them, feel free to change the battery.

The EU defines user replaceable as you can remove the batteries with common tools. Common tools is defined as a Phillips or flathead screwdriver. So even Nintendo and their stupid try-force screw thing won't be acceptable.
