This is a valid point.

No it isn't.
What happens when Cub Cadet and John Deere change their design due to new tech? Do they quit supporting the old mowers? How about any appliance ever made? they don't just stop supporting their older models.

Why would they quit selling the old battery?
i know why they might quit selling it, b/c the new battery is compatible with their older tools, making that old battery obsolete.
If it's not compatible with it, then they'll keep making that old battery until there isn't a demand for it anymore that keeps it profitable for them, and if they do quit making it while there's still a demand for it, then some chinese company will sell the exact same battery on Amazon that you can get.
