I take it you don’t own an EV?

Range is always relevant. For me, my max normal range (without the very time sensitive full charge) is a day to day factor.

And I’m an outlier in the other direction: charge to 80% and usually go a week before plugging in

For what it’s worth, general consensus is that staying plugged in, even with just a normal outlet, is best practice. That has the battery conditioning run more aggressively, which is better for battery longevity. This isn’t like the NiCd batteries with a big memory effect if you recharge too early.

I have read that but wonder how much of that is so that you don’t have range anxiety. My driving is usually predictable so not a big deal
