"hey here is a way to increase the life of your battery by possibly 400%."
"OMG! Why are you obsessing over this!"
Seriously how dare they try to help us and educate us!
the 400% figure is extremely misleading and based on old assumptions and old battery tech.
Also it you're not keeping the phone for 20 years then it doesn't make sense to calculate "total electrons" over the absolute entirety of the battery "life".
