If you don't ever charge it to over 80% then it's effectively already degraded 20% since the day you got it. I'll rather just use it as intented and then replace the battery when it no longer holds charge. That's just one of the reasons I didn't buy one with built in battery.

but that's an incommensurable, fallacious comparison. What the article talks about is battery life, not single charge duration
