From that it's a safe bet that the overall lifetime of the Oasis will be about 1/6 that of the Voyage.

These unfounded claims have been raised and rebutted many times already.
As others have pointed out, there are several other factors which influence LiIon battery lifetime, particularly the depth of the charge cycle. It's entirely reasonable to suppose that typical Oasis usage patterns will involve shallower discharge cycles and hence a longer lifetime.
JSWolf in particular - you've made this claim many times on this forum, and each time the flaws in your reasoning are pointed out to you. You never address those flaws, but instead just wait a while and make the same flawed claims again. What are you trying to achieve?
