Now, for the best battery health, just need to only charge everything that's used portably but plugged in every night to 80%, and everything that's occasionally moved from place to place but only ever used when it's plugged in to 50%.

100% charges are for those occasions when you'll be working away from power for a few days.

That being said, a lot of consumer electronics work that way automatically, where they stop charging below their theoretical max capacity but read as 100% to protect the battery and let consumers still feel like their devices are fully charged.
