Given that the way the Oasis will be used in many instances (with frequent top-up charges from the case) means that the absolute capacity of the device battery isn't crucial (the overall capacity will be dominated by the case battery), the designers could well have chosen not to charge the device battery to full capacity, thereby further extending the lifetime.

While it's perfectly valid to consider whether there might possibly be a reduced battery lifetime on the Oasis, it's by no means certain that that will be the case. Claiming it so assertively, and insisting that people of differing opinions "stay out and let those who know what they're talking about talk" is unhelpful.
I don't ask people with differing opinions to "stay out.....". That is an absolute misrepresentation of my intention. People will have differing opinions and that's okay. But I draw the line at people making assertions that are glaringly illogical, and dismissing those that seek to further the discussion on the basis of informed dialogue rather than irrelevant experiences. I asked the poster to stay out because he tried to create an equivalence between his experience with a 1350mah battery on the K1 and the 250 mah battery on the Oasis main device and he explicitly stated that he was dismissive of those who didnt share his optimism.
