I’m thinking of trying to replace one of the batteries in a Surface Book 2 15” - is there any significant problem with either replacing just the screen segment battery or just replacing the keyboard section battery, but not both?

I just want to be able to unplug the unit and move it (separated or still attached to the keyboard) from one room to the next without the whole device shutting down.

I just want to be able to unplug the unit and move it (separated or still attached to the keyboard) to plug it in in another room in less than 5 minutes without the whole device shutting down.
AFAICT, there’s no battery swelling, but neither the keyboard nor screen section batteries can hold any charge at all. There’s not even a one-second delay in turning off when the device is unplugged.
I’m not new to repairing devices, but I’m pretty new when it comes to fixing devices designed to defeat owner repair/maintenance.
