It’s a precaution. If you were to damage the exposed battery it could cause it to heat up and probably catch fire.
You do no want a lithium battery fire in your house.
If you’re going to do it make sure you have enough time to do it all in one go so you don’t have to leave the back off.
It’s not a long task, I think setting the blank drive up afterwards took longer than the actual drive swap
