This is one of those exceedingly rare cases where EU legislation has produced an unambiguously good outcome: from February 2027, Logitech’s European wireless devices will ship with hard-pack, user-replaceable batteries, and Logitech will sell certified replacements.
— Rui Carmo on the EU-only user-replaceable batteries policy.
Personally, I have always looked for rechargeable USB-C batteries in my Logitech MX Vertical mice and Trackballs. I do not want to have to replace batteries — I mostly use the mice wired, and every now and then I want to use them wireless (when I am charging something else, or connecting to bluetooth devices).
Lately, I have been more concerned about bad batteries making devices unusable and electronic garbage. I fully endorse this EU policy of having user-replaceable batteries everywhere (and as standard as possible, but not USB-C mandatory standard). In fact, I would prefer for mice to use traditional AA batteries, but only if they are rechargeable! This is because I end up destroying the outside of the mouse before the battery dies on me. Speaking of which, I should order two more to replace the skinless ones I am working with.
