You could double the battery size and still only have one day of light to medium usage. Battery optimization especially in idle is important.

Have you seen how thick the librem 5 is? I think it is think because of the two m.2 slots in it, but I don't think you would want it any thicker.

It is thick for many reasons, having separate chips for security means a bigger motherboard, having a socket for a security chip, etc. But the battery is really big, much bigger than is common for modern phones.
