I imagine this will be disabled in the EU, but it’s a concern nonetheless.

    I didn’t understand why we didn’t set the expectation years ago of phones ignoring the top and bottom 20%. Change it so 80 is the new 100, 20 is the new 0, and then play up the longevity factor and some marketing bs around “we squeeze every last drop out of the last 5%” (ie letting the phone go to 18% or something).

      We did. Your phone’s battery controller already does that, and the percentage displayed to you is normalized to the available range.
