The multitude of batteries for every little thing could be consolidated into an e-bike by having universal (USB-C maybe?) ports accessible in areas that make sense (near the derailleur, near the seat post, maybe near the fork?). So if you like to have all those gizmos, you don't need to have 3 or 4 different batteries. You charge your e-bike and everything just runs off that. It does add cables, but those could be hidden through the same internal routing that's already in use. If you don't have an e-bike, but still have all the electronic gizmos, single battery gets placed above the bottom bracket and all power cables connect there. minimal routing, still wireless for the controls on the bars making for an ultra clean cockpit. I'm guessing this will start to happen around 2023-2024. Or this comment could age very poorly, I don't have a crystal ball.
