Swapping batteries is a no brainier for this tech. There is zero reason to have a 500k aircraft waiting around charging vs having 2+ set's of batteries.

Electric cars have a long enough range and are mostly single family so swapping is less useful.

Reserve is a much larger issue, aircraft want to keep ~1hour of reserve these things are starting with less than that.
