IIRC they even run wired if plugged in too. I think they just wanted to recycle the chassis of the original Magic Mouse to save on tooling and parts but that design doesn't allow for a plug in the front so they came up with this turd of a design.

That seems like the most likely explanation.

Running wired is an important feature, if you need to connect them to a mac mini.
