I'm not - we ship our stuff with alkalines. but regardless of what current chemistries are best at today, one time use blows. Lets say we get 1 year on our alkalines and would get 1.8 years on lithium, after just a couple years, I will have one or two sets of battery waste even though we are specc'ing our hardware for at least 6 years (when we expect a decent number of units flash memory to start dying. There aren't yet good reusable batteries with good shelf life but there are plenty of applications where that would substantially prevent waste and generally make things simpler. I'm agnostic/indifferent to chemistry (assuming their externalities are similar, which they're not btw), but having a few AAAs for my whole life would be fantastic and probably reduce the environmental consequences of society quite dramatically.
