> In the older bose headsets you could slap an AAA batteries and be good for a while. These types of batteries won't disappear anytime soon.

You'll generate far more waste from AAA batteries in the time it takes for the Airpod batteries to require disposal.

Yep, just like in the Airpods. And just like the ones in the Airpods, they'll eventually stop holding a charge. The only difference is, they're significantly bigger than the Airpods, and have more of the toxic waste.
