Is the battery user replaceable with basic tools (e.g. no heatgun)?

The original deck had fragile ribbon cables that had to be removed, the battery was heavily glued, and require removing many pieces to access, does the new design alleviate these concerns in favor of reparability like the analog sticks have been?

I heard someone say earlier that the glue this time is far less forgiving. Will have to wait for iFixit and their official teardown of the Deck OLED to find out, ig.

Edit: They already did a teardown :P and yes, the glue is far less forgiving this time, it seems. Come on Valve, where are the pull tabs?!
