If one cell fails prematurely taking apart the pack to harvest the remaining cells makes sense, but if the pack is nearing end-of-life all cells are on their way out and the exercise becomes futile.
If Tesla packs have a low premature failure rate there's no reason to make them easy to take apart, but it would make them structurally weaker, heavier and/or more expensive.
So Tesla does not plan for the cells to fail. They plan for them to succeed.
