My initial comment was to someone who believes that battery swapping will win out in the end, which I'm fairly certain it won't, just given how good fast charging technology is now. Reportedly Nio is burning cash at an unprecedented rate. I would assume the complexity of making the battery removable is digging into their margins quite heavily, as well as building out this infrastructure that very few actually needs. I see it mostly as a gimmick to get people who are hellbent on thinking that battery technology will either massively increase all of a sudden or those that think batteries degrade much faster and more than they actually do.
