Good catch. The slot obviously cut first with a circular saw from the backside, and then completed from the front with a saber/jig type saw.

NOT a hole saw as I might be wont to do in expediency.

Edit: Hmm. Look at that hole for the gearshift. Obviously done with a hole-saw. Do you suppose it's the same diameter as the battery slot ends?
