Removable batteries existed in smart phones before. There are plenty of devices today, walkie talkies for example, that are fully waterproof and are battery swappable.
Do owners actually want thin? I’ve never heard anyone brag about how thin their phone is. I’m almost positive the thin fetish only exists so companies have a nice easy number to advertise, like all the useless numbers they slap on processors and TVs.

Manufacturers just want your money.
Well… most of those devices aren’t thin boutique items. Something a lot of smartphone owners want.

Thinness enables large screens while keeping the device usable/ergonomic.
Holding a brick ain’t exactly the same feeling.
