    Know what.......designers can not design to the whims of every potential owner.

    And you think that your situation qualifies as a scientific study.......or even a statistical one ??
    Hint: It is neither and is just another anecdote.

    And I know that this will be wasted effort but just incase you might actually benefit from some facts:
    One of the reasons that the change was made is:
    There is an inexpensive and readily available remedy for batteries that don't get charged enough in "normal" use: A battery tender.
    OTOH, there is NO remedy for a battery that experiences a very slow loss of capacity because of OVER charging.

    You can stop your incessant and pointless whining whenever you want.
    It is doing absolutely no good.
