Time to hit them with your above reply.
"You can ship the machine ground." That was literally all he said, how should I proceed?
Ask them to explain In further detail.
How should I do that? Like ask with which carrier? "Ground with which carrier? FedEx won't take it and neither will the other two. With all the coronavirus panic, shipping restrictions are much stricter, it will be hard to find a carrier that won't have a problem with shipping it." Something like that?

He was insisting that I ship the laptop with FedEx ground shipping because it has tracking. I assume that he's still insistent on that.

However, FedEx will not accept goods with leaking batteries, correct?

wrong.
There are several regulations surrounding the safe transport of lithium batteries. Remember: all types of lithium batteries are considered Dangerous Goods and must be handled and labeled properly. The type of lithium battery, quantity, electric capacity, charge and how they're packed — whether they're contained within equipment, shipped with equipment or all alone — are all determining factors in how to pack and label lithium battery shipments. Whether it be by air, ocean, rail or truck, there are many regulations in place and it can be difficult to know how to properly pack, label and ship these batteries.
been had that pulled on me before.
from what I remember when I SE'd my switch, they said just bring it into fedex because they can package it there for you. (If it's a "dangerous goods") ALSO USPS does it too if you're wondering.

Guess I misread that then, damn. How were you able to pull off your SE of the switch if this was a roadblock for you? Is there any circumstance where they will absolutely not ship a lithium battery, in my case, like a faulty battery? I'm kind of hard stuck on what I should do from here.
Would I be able to say that a majority of the carriers have closed due to the workers either being infected with coronavirus or self-quarantining due to it? Then nominate a carrier which has tracking as an optional feature, somewhere like USPS? Since, as you said, they accept hazardous material, I could say that they accepted it but the package didn't have a tracking number? (I'm not sure if this is accurate or this is due to the nature of the postage calculator on the USPS website but they have tracking as an optional feature.)

Not gonna go into details with this, but you should think of how to scan your returnlabel and make sure it goes Missing.
How you do this...?
Use your fantasy.

That's why I questioned It.
Thanks for confirming.

I guess the SE failed? Since there are no updates anymore.

I've seen a lot of refunders services offer Lenovo up to $5000 with a 1-2 item limit. I'm guessing the method is either a fake return or a DNA.
