iPhone batteries are already pretty easy to replace. I’ve done it dozens of times for several different models. It requires two screws, a bit of heat and a suction cup, then a couple more screws and some pull tabs. Usually takes under 30 minutes to do.
I don’t know how you could make it much easier while keeping the waterproofing. Rossman is a highly opinionated guy and I appreciate his advocacy, but he also makes no attempt to be fair to the product designers and is very biased.
Fairphone 4 isn’t IP68 though, it’s IP54. I personally don’t care much about waterproof vs water resistent, but let’s not pretend these two ratings are identical.

If Fairphone can do it, I would think a company valued at like 3 Trillion dollars could do it…

Yeah well, my dad’s phone is an IP69 and it can beat up your dad’s phone
It’s not as waterproof as the iPhone. Also likely made of entirely different materials.
