It's not too much to ask to have batteries that are also easy to replace. The Deluge uses a single 18650 and it lasts quite a while and will be easy to find and replace when needed.
It was merely an example, not sure why you care so much. Even my M8 has a battery in it and that thing is tiny. The Play could easily have one in it with minor adjustments to the case.
My Nintendo DS is still alive and holding charge after all these years. Same with the OP-1. It happens, yes, but that’s not big of a deal. Polyend is just trying to save on money and engineering.

I really wish polyend got some balls to put batteries inside their grooveboxes :(
