I mean… that’s a true thing that happens and must be compensated for unless you want your phone to randomly die at 20%. Android phones do it, too. I’d rather my phone slow down at 10% than have it just cut out and die.
It wasn’t slowing down the phones at different battery percentages, they were essentially derating the hardware under the premise of battery management, and iirc they got called out and said “you’re right, but buy new phones anyway, yours are old.”
