     @meeper pretty sure its an old notice. batteries generally aren't removable and they do tend to be a bit smarter these days. (thinkpads do charge cap, steam deck supports it though valve has it speculate when to full charge or not.)
     
     then you get LiFePo batteries that *like* being charged to 100%, though those aren't being put in mobile things.
     
     if it were up to me we'd be using manganese-dioxide nanowire batteries, as in lab tests those just... don't wear out.

     why can't they give a 'disable charging at x%' option, even phones do this :(
