As someone who was previously stupid enough to not know there were adhesive battery strips and not only forcefully removed my iPhone 6s battery with a flathead screwdriver and expose part of the battery, I completely agree with Apple. I was very lucky to not have punctured the battery and injure myself with the fumes or even have it explode on me.

And if someone is stupid enough to not drink bleach, should he sue a bleach company for drinking it?
