That seems unlikely to me, but you're right - we don't know.

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?

That seems to me like an unlikely usage pattern for an Oasis - certainly my usage pattern (and that of everyone else I know with an Oasis) involves returning the Oasis to its cover between reading sessions.
But, again, we don't know.
Bear in mind - I'm not the one making any claims here. I'm not saying the lifetime will be better, or worse, just that it's not obvious that it will be worse and those people claiming that it definitively will be are basically guessing and then trying to pass that guess off as established fact.
