Apple doesn't force OS updates, but they promote them very aggressively. And if you accidentally update, Apple makes it impossible to downgrade.

In India, I got my iPhone serviced for a camera issue. They updated the device to the latest iOS before returning it to me. I was given no choice in the matter.

Wouldn’t be surprised if they do it for battery replacements as well.
