    I don't get why people defend them, they aren't even that tasty and make my stomach hurt

      You must be part of the 40% that can't taste that bitter coating they put on them for flavour

      It's the kind that goes in a watch, they're hard to keep track of and can fall out of devices.

      They're instant kid killers and it happens all the time. Never allow one into your house.

      ("Instant" in the sense that it takes a few hours but by the time you figure out something is wrong it's far too late)

    Good for powering smol things, when even a triple-A is too big

    I hate all batteries that can't be replaced by a wired connection.

    Batteries are good and ok in things that have a good reason to have them. Other times, its pure laziness. I got a fish auto feeder so I can go away for a few days without starving my friends. Sucker requires 2 AAs. There are already 6 other wires, if they just let me plug in a USB C or micro or whatever, it could last forever. Instead, I gotta throw in 2 batteries.

    Or like why the hell does my garage opener use a button cell when a AA/AAA would take up like half a centimeter more, last probably 20x longer, and be MUCH easier to replace...

    The only reason I like them is cuz I'm good at replaces them in car fobs and it makes me an asset at work.
