This chart says absolutely nothing about what it means for cycle life if you go from, say, 75% to 25% as it DoD charts always assume starting 100% SOC (state of charge).
As long as you're avoiding the extremes large cycles will always cause more degradation than smaller cycles. Sure... 100% - 90% - 100% might be worse than 80% - 65 - 80% but 80 - 50 - 80 will be worse than 80 - 65 - 80.
The point is that frequent charging is the best thing for your battery.
