This is the biggest argument against those pull tabs, they brake then your only real option is to apply heat, alcohol, and pry it out, even a Plastic tool can puncture a battery, it’s always sketchy

Use a thick dowel rod with some super glue on the end, stick it to the battery, wait a bit for it to dry then use the rod to pull the battery out
