Moving something as large as the recently-replaced batteries out
via the airlock seems like a real logistical nightmare, considering
there's barely enough room in there for two suited astronauts as it
is, and safety rules apparently prohibit sending one person out
alone.


There are two airlocks though. Crew could go out through one, equipment
through the other.


Possibly, but I'd bet it would still be a p.i.t.a. to do it this way.


Yes. In reality anything big is going to go up on an HTV and will never
pass through the station interior.
