Yeah, my understanding is that it's not an insurmountable issue, it's just one that the steam deck hardware team wasn't able to solve in a cost effective way.
That I can believe. Between the cost of producing cells in custom housings, and the individually minuscule but collectively considerable cost of both mounting hardware and fasteners, a piece of adhesive looks a lot better to manufacturers.
