Why would you switch platforms, form factors, OSs, etc. for +4x the cost of a battery in the ecosystem you already know?

because that iphone 6s is EOL no matter the battery. If you don't want to drop the money for a recent-ish iPhone you have to switch.

Not that 1000$ are a bad deal for an iPhone that will easily last you 4+ years.
