This is expected behavior of LFP vs NCA. This is well established in battery data sheets and well known by those of us that have been following batteries a long while. LFP generally has much higher cycle life and tolerates cycling much better. That doesn't mean however 100% is actually good for it and 50% has no advantages. It just takes longer to show up due to higher cycle life.China have been using the LFP battery pack for awhile. The data so far, does suggest the LFP degrades slower than the NCA.
I had a 2019 M3 and I babied that battery. My SOC went from 240 to 218 after just 20,000 miles. Not good. I am expecting my new M3 LFP to have much less degradation.
BTW do you have links to the data gathered for China vs how it tracks with NCA?
