I wonder how much screen brightness plays on to people’s varying battery life results.

You’re the first person I’ve seen say they use a laptop at quarter brightness. I keep my screens either at full brightness or close to it. Never below 75%. Prior to your comment if id seen a laptop maker advertise a certain battery life and then have “at quarter brightness” in the fine print id consider them deceptive but apparently there’s at least one of you that it’s accurate for.
