Ask HN: Any hope for removable, rechargable battery standards?

I have so many batteries for things like power tools, vacuum cleaners, and even some kid toys that all seem like they have similar volt/amps but are not interchangeable. None of the adapters are the same, and it's getting harder to find replacements online for the more niche battery types. Will we ever see something like B&Ds battery packs standardized so I can have a whole rack of them and use them with everything? Seems nuts to think about if we didn't have AA/AAA batteries and every company had their own standard...
