How many hours of reading?

How many hours of reading did you put in to finish an entire eBook? I believe that is the factor which causes the battery drain, not highlights at all.

I have loads of eBooks and loads of highlights and notes and have never deleted any files on my Kindles or my Samsung s5 smart phone. I have not noticed any deterioration of the batteries on any of the devices from that situation.

However, I do leave the Kindles in Airplane Mode when not in use and leave my s5 in Ultra Power Savings Mode when not in use. That does conserve battery juice.

All my highlights and notes are preserved here:

https://kindle.amazon.com/your_highlights

Thus, I never have to access any text files on my devices to use them. I can freely copy and paste from that IP link to any other documents as needed.
