Generally, a worn-out battery is shown by the *lower* part of the range being eaten away: e.g. my old Oasis 1 now jumps directly from discharged to 35% in 30s, then ticks up as usual after that.

100% is actually more like 80% in any case -- it sits at 100% for a while and is actually still filling up. (And, of course, even a fully-charged li-ion battery is not *fully* charged because venting with flame can ruin your whole day and burn your house down.)
