Isn’t there a safety hazard with battery swelling and such if it’s always connected to power? May be I have outdated information I unmounted the iPad after reading about it.

It's like a smart thermostat, always plugged in.

That's old information, modern devices have better battery management

		Limiting charging below 100% (which many tablets now support) helps, but the battery is still likely to be the component that fails before anything else.
