Is there a difference between the battery preconditioning the car will do while navigating to a supercharger vs turning on max defrost?

I've got a supercharger within 6 miles of home. I was thinking of setting the navigation destination to the supercharger and allow the car to do the preconditioning. The max defrost I use presently doesn't seem to work very effectively (30 min of max defrost does not reduce the "dots" indicating battery temp shown on screen.

My MY is parked in an unheated car port, covered but exposed to the weather.
