It's quite likely that on a grander scale of things, it's better economy that the few people who want to use their laptop the whole flight, do get two batteries, than doing the investment of putting AC power in all seats.

Otoh, more batteries on planes increases the risk of fire due to exploding batteries happening in the plane :P
