I'm happy that your usecase is a conscious one, that doesn't completely remove the issues of two powertrains to maintain and a smaller battery. BYD is better than average in this regard, and 30kW battery seems big enough that I agree with you, deep/frequent cycling is less of an issue.

Unfortunately that is not the experience for the average driver of a PHEV. Most people buy by brand, not by specs, so the average result is what you see in the links of EVClinic - 80`000km cars with fried batteries that cost more to replace than the resale value of the car itself (and again, as also noted by EVClinic IIRC, BYD is better than average in regard to repairs and parts cost).
