This all sounds like FUD to me. You might as easily complain about how much harder it is to refill the gas tank than swap the batteries a few times.
Lithium Ion batteries generally have a maximum optimal operating temperature of 122°F but will operate up to 176°F. If the temperature is approaching 176°F, I think the human will be the first thing to fail.
Also, nobody needs to lug around a full day of power. Spare batteries can stay in the truck until needed, at most you would have one spare on your person.
You’re talking as if it’s some kind of new unknown technology and there is no way to know if it’s even viable.
I was using battery operated tools when I worked in construction like 20 years ago, and they were performing fine.

Fairly certain that a battery will immediately get hotter than its surroundings with any kind of sustained use or charging.
