No upgraditis, just like a particular model and want to stay with it for a few (many) years.
Unfortunately by the time you get around to using the spare you'll probably be lucky if the battery will carry half of the charge of a new battery. Lifespan on Li-Ion/Poly batteries is commonly quoted as 3-5 years. Unless the Sony's have replaceable batteries you're not going to have a fully comparable replacement spare.
