I don’t know how you could make it much easier while keeping the waterproofing.
I had a Galaxy S5 years back that had a IP67 rating and had an easily detachable battery and I could bring it in the shower and wade in water with that thing in my pocket. I get that iPhones are IP68 rated and everything, but outside of accidentally dropping it into a pool I can’t really imagine many use cases where it’s necessary for most people.
I’ll take easy access to removable storage and battery over better water protection any day.

The Galaxy S5 also had atrocious build quality and never really held up to water like advertised. Very shitty phone.
