It's Business/Design side vs. Engineering side.
Engineering side--
1. Overprovision the battery
2. Make clear to user if the phone is operating in a degraded mode, and why, and how to fix
3. Make battery replacements cheap and easy
Business/Design side--
1. The phone won't look as sleek, and will cost more!
2. We can't tell consumers their phones aren't perfect! It makes us look bad, and maybe they'll force us to fix it for free!
3. The phone won't look as sleek, and will cost more!
4. Bonus--it encourages users to buy a new phone after a few years!
