And that's why I say "Just use it". Li-Ion batteries age. A Li-Ion battery just sitting there doing nothing loses capacity over time. The more they are used, the faster that happens. But, what's the point of having a battery last ten years if you never actually use it? Turning off WiFi if you don't use it to extend battery life makes sense. Not setting the light to a comfortable level for reading just to save battery doesn't.
