I recorded my battery life figures: with the devices set up to look as much as possible as each other, the Sage got only 2/3 the battery life of the Forma. If it had had the same battery life, I'd have kept it (just because of the USB-C port). But, with that miserable battery life, no.
You returned it? I complained vociferously about the very poor battery life on the Sage, but I would not have thought of returning it. Your own comparison shows you getting 8+ hours of reading out of it, making overnight (or whenever one sleeps) charging a viable option.
