Tying a rechargeable battery to a single function device seems off-brand for iFixit.

edit, I am wrong. I didn't RTFM. Humble pie is good sometimes.

It’s a multi-use battery.

The battery can be used to charge whatever you want. A phone, laptop, headphones, or anything else with USB. Also, the battery is user replaceable and the product repair diagrams are posted online.

IMHO, it looks like they’re practicing what they preach, and it’s all designed for longevity and right to repair.
