I don't think that L-shaped battery can be made. Imagine a list of paper which you need to fold into compact form. It would be really hard to fold it into "L".

Batteries made of long sheets folded then into rectangle

- fiatpandas 9y agoThe "jelly roll" is just one packing technique. You can pack flat sheets, so in theory can create an L shape. Another guess is with an L shaped battery, thermal expansion makes it tricky because the L shaped compartment has a sharp inner corner which runs this risk of stressing the battery when it expands. A square compartment does not have that issue. In any event, Apple knows how to produce weird shaped batteries. Just look at the Macbook. But it's in a nicely shape space.
