Older laptops left space for the batteries so they could swell slightly without damaging the laptop. Apple's design leaves no such space.

Are Apple using cylindrical cells or pouches? Cylindrical cells doesn't swell in the same way and have pressure cap before they crack the shell. Pouches probably has to swell abit before their cap pop.
