    Obviously that’ll be true with battery packs too. They’re also significantly cheaper, so it’s usually fairly reasonable to have multiple and them being at 50% capacity doesn’t matter nearly as much.

      That’s correct, I agree with you.

      That requires this knowledge of how batteries work. Saying keep a battery pack and your phone at 100% could leave people in a situation worse than if they just used the battery manager to stop their phone at 85%. 99% of people will plug their battery pack in until it’s full, stash it wherever they decide for emergencies, and will find a dead pack when they need it.
