I don’t use the mouse itself (it’s hell for my RSI) but do use the keyboard and trackpad. I just have a Lightning cable hooked up to the computer and maybe once a week I’ll plug it into one or the other before I go to bed.

It’s really no different from a phone, smart watch, laptop, tablet, MPC Live, SMG with LiPO, Tesla Roadster, or anything else with batteries that die really quickly. Is the location of the port a dumb wank exercise in “design” over function? Yes, but the whole thing is and that’s the least of its problems. lol
