Car companies have to cover the batteries for at least 8 years, and they know many customers will charge to 100%. That 80% rule is being found to be much less important than it used to be. The main thing is don't charge on DC fast chargers unnecessarily, and second, don't KEEP it at 100%
So probably set it to charge to 80%, during the hours that your power is cheapest, and charge to 100% if you need that for a trip, just before the trip, don't leave it sitting at 100% through the weekend all the time.
