(Note that Google did it before FaceBook)
Essentially they are doing what IBM did to the AS/400 and iSeries machines for many years. From the C models through the 5074 towers and 7xx server batteries lived in the bottom and kept the machines running through short power outages. Maybe in this light IBM will rethink the removal of on-board batteries??
