They were designed so that they'd get easily lost and they prevent you from replacing the battery. With enough marketing even a low quality product like airpods can be a commercial success

i’ve owned airpods for 8 years and lost them once. by “lost” i mean i forgot them when frantically checking out of a hotel to catch a flight.

Not everyone is careless with their things. On the aspect of battery replacement, i agree it’s a shame.
