Removing the battery doesn't disable your computer. Or have you not figured that out yet?
I have.
But it's not a portable computer anymore.
Imagine if the auto manufacturer tells you not to drive your car out of your driveway for 6 weeks. Oh, you can start it and sit in it and listen to the radio, and you can drive it up and down your driveway--but for God's sake, don't take it on the road!
I repeat: if I wanted a desktop computer, I would have bought one. I didn't. I bought a portable computer. But Apple has relegated it to being a desktop computer.
A desktop computer with a 12" screen. I now have a very fast Mac Plus.
