God no. With those designs you lose so much capacity to the extra stuff required to support it.
You effectively need two backs—one to cover the battery and another to cover the components inside. You also largely lose the ability to do non-rectangular/multi-cell batteries, which is critical to maximising capacity in many modern phones.
