Yes, just exchanging batteries is an alternative to recharging. But it requires additional logistics and also the investment into additional batteries.
There are of course scenarios, where battery change is the only practical way. Like it was with horse changes on long distance travel long ago.
This changes quickly, if you have batteries with enough range to make recharging feasible. With electric cars the industry was quickly at the point and looking at the specs of the Tesla Semi, heavy trucks are basically there too. Which probably will kill any attempt at setting up a network for battery exchange before it was made.
