Yes but the point is, this technology is a blocker for people who might otherwise be interested in an electric powertrain vehicle.
If you want an old car without all this crap, you can get one. But it pretty much has to be an ICE.

EVs really are not a great deal heavier than the ICE versions of the same or similar vehicles.
The Jaguar I-Pace EV is lighter than some variants of the F-Pace ICE.
Regarding the I-pace vs the F-pace I was unable to find more than a single version with a greater weight than the I-pace, though I admit I haven't analyzed the specs of all 108 editions. That single example weighing more was, of course, a hybrid.
EV versions are, primarily due to the weight of their battery packs, significantly heavier than their ICE counterparts and that's fine.
There are all kinds of design choices that can be made to fit completely within the original specs of the chassis.
It’s really not a practical thing for at least 99% of the population. Probably more like 4 or 5 nines.
It's odd how anti-hack Hacker News has become.
If you can do it all yourself, it's only moderately expensive.
This surely isn’t a large group.
