Mmm i wouldn't go that far on most devices, most of the time that would result in unsatisfying runtime.
however for devices where they can easily run days on a charge, yeah it makes sense. My xiaomi smartwatch gets 6 fucking days on 70% charge with quite a lot of power-drawing features enabled, so there's really no reason to ever charge it above 80%.
But on my phone i very much need to be able to charge it to 100% before travelling, it only gets like 16h with the screen off on a full charge.
Your phone only last 16 hours and that's with the screen off? I think you need to check your phone, because that's not normal. Your phone should be able to last a full day or two.
Yeah, so at that point you opt-in to the "overcharge" (just to make it look scary!) method of charging 100%
