macOS is unreliable period; mine gets charged to 100% immediately after a power outage of any kind, e.g., re-arranging the monitor/laptop, or an actual power outage.

Obviously, it'd be nice if it knew of power outages upfront, but charging to 100% after one, is kinda pointless.

Then it stays at 100% for several days, until discharging to 80% several days later.

It's supposed to be smart, but instead it causes the user to alter their own behaviour, e.g., not disconnect the USB-C when rearranging the desk, even if disconnecting would be far more convenient when doing a cleanup or re-arranging furniture.

I miss the time when Apple used to give you choices…
