This is a solved problem. Most EVs won't let you charge it to the actual 100% level or discharge it to 0.

    Exactly. Really, "fully charged" should just be conceptualised as being at a sensible safe point, with the acknowledgement that it's possible to "overcharge" the batteries to an even higher level, chemically speaking, but that all sensible devices don't let you do this.
