Adoptable Storage (APPS 2SD) not a feature in ZenFones

I contact asus customer service to ask why i wasn't able to move app to sd on my new zenfone max (ZB555KL). They gave me the following answer:

"Also moving forward, Adoptable Storage (APPS 2SD) will not be a feature made available for our ZenFones.

For the following reasons:  

*Creates inflexibility with MicroSD cards. Customers will lose out on portability for external storage functions if the feature is implemented."

I don't know if this old news but it is new to me. I had a zenfone 5 (the old one) for about 3-4 years and on that phone i was able to move app to sd. I thought that was a give feature of android. For me this is a dead breaker to leave asus phone and look for something else. Too bad, at least for me these phones were good and reasonably priced.

In the past, I have used nokia smartphones, and they were easy to replace with fresh batteries, since almost all nokias used the same battery type. Now with android, its all over the place. Is it even worth it to go for a removable battery device when you cant find a replacement a couple of years after you purchase it? What do you think/prefer? PS. I realize this is not exactly fault of android OS, but ...
