You were talking about slow charging before. About that option i don't really care and i only use it cause it makes no difference.

Limiting the max charge below 100% is good for battery life though. Recharging to 100% every 3 days would be possible, but pushing it., Charging every 48h to 80% works quite well and is more relaxed with 15-20% spare charge remaining.

I am just following the phones recommendation anyway.

I think again you're another person that overestimates how much the goldilocks zone helps and underestimates how good/smart battery charging has got. I'm at 95% health and 3 months shy of 2 Years of use with my phone. No special treatment just charging when needed with a fast charger. The current trend/rates for me would mean I hit 80% health in about another 2 and a bit years so 4 years total.
