Another point that I took away from the discussions of the internal battery tray is that all of the parts involved have fairly high electrical resistance, so a lot of current gets wasted heating

Glad you said nearly perfect. I'd be concerned about the lack of overcurrent and thermal protection for something which will live inside the 817. Also there is a convenience factor related to
