If we were to allow batteries like you want, please point out, in the current rules for custom circuits, what would stop me from putting a battery equivalent in capacity to the robot battery on board to power a custom circuit, and wire from that battery to the circuit with 28 gauge wire? Can you even pretend that situation should be allowed?
You would NEED rules just as complicated as our current power distribution rules for custom circuits if you allowed improvised powering of custom circuits from random batteries. For the sake of safety there just isn't any way around that.
