I know cords are a bit of a pain, but rotating batteries and keeping them charged is also a bit of a pain, and at least the pain of cords ensures that you always have a tool to use when you need it. Also electrical outlets have been standardized for more than a century now.

Exactly. Cordless drills are super convenient and super cheap. For anything more heavy duty than that, I want something corded (which usually has the added advantage of being both cheaper and available in good condition second-hand).

Yep. Corded tools don't need to be charged. Love it!

Word. The only tools I use with batteries are my lawn mower, leaf blower, and weed whacker. Otherwise, cords are fine.
