Nope, the law specifically states you have to be able to remove the battery without any special tools.

    A tiny screwdriver and a sprunger aren't special tools

    Now I'm confused. Does the law say no special tools or no tools?

    Let me not misrepresent. As per https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/docs_autres_institutions/commission_europeenne/com/2020/0798/COM_COM(2020)0798_EN.pdf

    Waste portable batteries incorporated in appliances that are readily removable by the end user without the use of professional tools shall be removed and discarded by end users in accordance with paragraph 1.
