Planned obsolence should be illegal

Won't anybody think of the poor shareholders? Planned obsolescence is what keeps this whole system running.

This is why I want an Onvo with battery swap over a Tesla.. Everyone makes fun of me for it, but nobody realizes that if you swap the battery about once a year, then you're able to preserve the life of your vehicle.

Shareholders definitely qualify.
