I've already had my N70 battery replaced under that program. It's a brand new batt from Nokia. The replacement program was to replace batteries that had a very small chance of blowing up. Those that didn't blow up continued to work normally. My old N70 battery still works but won't turn on if I leave it off for a day or two. The new battery (replacement) will turn on after a day or two, but if I leave it off for a week or more the battery is completely dead.

The 5310 doesn't have a battery replacement program since there were no problems with their batteries (at least none that Nokia own up to).

The 5310 I bought BRAND NEW from a store, in an unopened box, only two months ago.

Nokia batteries are more prone to leaks if they are not charged regularly, while you can charge SE batteries at any time and you don't have to charge them to 100%. My old W800i, when not used at all (except for 2-3 text messages a day), can last for a good 4-5 days.
