Nothing surprises me anymore. BMW is worse. Not easy to get to, but the car has to be programmed to the exact size battery installed in the car, and even if you put an identical battery back in, the battery has to be "registered" to the car to tell the charging system there's a new battery in the car. If a new battery isn't registered, it won't last even a year at best, because the car charges a new battery differently than it charges an old battery.
