That would be the true advantage of all bikes (or same for cars jusr bigger batts) having the same batteries. They would be properly charged at a station that would inspect and maintain them. The same a with Propane tanks for grills, they handle removing unsafe, damaged or depleted batteries and the consumer gets a quality product and dpes not have to wait for a recharge or worry about warranty/replacement of their batteries. There is a trade off in the fact that paying for the service will make the electric less cost saving vs a gas motor but it should be reasonable and you can still top it off at home
