There are few things more asinine than differing voltages on cells that
are supposed to be interchangeable. One that does come to mind is a
rectangular plug/socket design (without a 'key') like USB has. What

There would be an extra cost, but that's not the point, since the cost
would be minimal. However, added up over multiple units all those
miniscule savings mount up.
Like I said in my reply to James, it's been a long, long time since I
had equipt. that could handle the situation.
