I wonder if it will feel significant. I can't remember being limited by the controller battery. The runtime on a single charge is probably still going to be measured in weeks, and at that scale I feel like it doesn't really matter.

Yes but it's limited to only the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller.

The basic Joy-cons have no change to their battery capacity.

It's because they're basically already using user replaceable batteries, to the point I'm not sure what the SKU revision will actually do. My best guess is they won't be gluing the battery down any more? Otherwise there's not anything I can see they would need to change.

Glad to hear, because that's how much a battery will degrade by itself in 1 to 2 years if you're average lucky.

Agreed, that one's not great. But it seems to be the only product that has serious trade-offs.
