One could argue (not I, though) that you should have changed

Which, I suppose, would have been the case had you changed
batteries before the shoot. As you noted, setting up the
camera again could be time consuming or confusing depending on
one's familiarity with the gear, access to a manual, and being
able to remember just how you wanted everything to be.
I've equipped all my cameras with custom functions. They are
an understanding of metering and light, a clear idea of what I
want to express, a knowledge of DOF, film, and developers, all
of which is controlled by the processor God has given me.
