That's why you would only use those for long distance trips and for everything else you would own that one old pack.

Rigidity could indeed be a problem but so has been gasoline safety. There would need to be standards but there are also standards for charging plugs so, it is not like this never happened before.

Or have a built in battery and battery swap bay. Both can happen and no reason not do have both.
