If you think that's bad, you should read up on the procedure
to change a battery. The parts have to be "registered" with
one another, for that to work. Simply unplugging the old $4000
item and plugging in a new one, won't work. This avoids
a secondary market consisting of stolen batteries :-)

Registering new components has been a feature of many ICE cars for quite
some time. Its not exclusive to EVs.
