There is nothing wrong with wanting lots of range but most trips are short range. If the battery can be easily swapped storage can be matched with the current need. If [today] you need very short range the lighter battery has much better performance. If the swappable module could improve structural strength the difference can be even larger. You do get the problem of many batteries stored in one location but there are many maintenance opportunities and you can have a crane that can lift a burning battery long enough to drop it in a bath. It would also give access to future battery technology, perhaps a fuel cell module or combustion engine, who knows? nuclear, mr fusion?
