My battery has swollen and is messing up my display colors (both retina and external HDMI). Apple Support diagnosed it as the problem. Rather than replace the battery, I was hoping to disconnect the battery connector and run the machine directly on AC power for a few months till I replace for a new Mac. (I want to wait for the new Mac Pro computers with the Mx chip). Can anyone think of a reason that might not work. My hypothesis is that a discharged battery will "unswell" enough to fix my display problem. Thank you for any hints.
