once water, moisture or molecules of salt get near the battery terminals or power vias, expect severe loss of much of the internal structures. electrolysis aided from dissimialr metals and powered by leaking currents from the battery will effectively destroy, erode any connections in this thing. un-encapsuling the epoxy or metallic chips may reveal similar erosion as water tend to wick into any opening small enough to pass though. this is just another Apple Experience for promoting and advertising itself. look away, nothing to see here....
