As far as the di2 charging box goes not sure what you mean? You’ve charged your battery while riding? How big are your rides?
“ A modern Di2 battery is said to last between 2000 and 5000 kilometers per charge. This depends a bit on how often you shift and also your shifting style. The front derailleur has to work harder than the rear derailleur and thus also consumes more energy”

The frame has internal routing for the gears and hydraulics so make sense to go full neatness 🤷♂️
