People should really chill. One is selling his device, another is talking about cheating and losing belief... There is no official statement about this issue. Just wait for the statement and then judge. Screen protectors are also an important thing that should be available right after the release so the screen does not get scratched in the meanwhile. Yet it appeared in the store just today (8months after the release). There's no reason why they should oppose selling batteries -it's an additional income. What I'm getting from Stefano's answer is that they will eventually sell it, they just don't have enough stock to be able to both sell batteries yet having enough for warranty repairs.
