Ugh! You're smarter than this... Is this some kind of one upmanship contest?
Any moderately literate reader understands nuance.
You obviously need someone to clarify again.
No is suggesting you never charge your battery to 100%.
You and I both want to use our batteries to the fullest extent and avoid carrying extra batteries.
Whenever possible, such as daily commutes which do not require the entire capacity of the bike, it is beneficial to use the 80-20% rule to multiply the charge cycles of your very expensive premium batteries. If your daily commute or whatever adventures require more charge, obviously do it! I do it too. It just depends on what is your usage.
It's about protecting your investment and extending the usability of you batteries, avoiding waste of money and increasingly rare resources ( lithium , rare earth metals etc). All this doesn't cost me anything (time or money).Taking this advice into account easy. If you still feel that these simple steps are an unbearable burden, strip you of your freedom, stunt the enjoyment you get from your bikes. Fine. No ones forcing you to at least try to benefit from this advice. go ahead burry your head in the sand do whatever you like but I find it sad/ disappointing that you and others put so much energy in negating , propagandising falsehoods and BS excuses in the face of common sens and overwhelming scientific evidence. The OP was asking about options for taking care of his battery what you an
@AHicks are doing isn't helpful
it's self aggrandisement .
