Or they may be limited by the two battery design. They may be doing ultra quick charges to ensure that the small battery is ready to be used when it is disconnected from the cover?

How about if you read 5 hours a day, with similar usage patterns for a Oasis and Voyage: reading without covers, charging at the end of the day. How would you expect the life of the batteries to compare?

I'm guessing the average user isn't going to stop and think about quick charge vs slow vs deep vs shallow, ...

IMO
