No maybe that's what YOU do, but i monitor voltage, current and time during charging and discharging to determine capacity. Then i can integrate the current-time curve to determine the cell capacity in A-hr, and i can multiply that times the voltage to determine the energy content of the cell in kWh. No percentages, SOC, ranges, miles, or # of turtles showing, just the basic measurements doing it the same way Panasonic does...
The industry standard way to rate a pack it to use the nominal voltage since the output voltage of the cells will decrease as they are discharged. So while everything you have written is correct, using the maximum rated voltage in your final step is not correct which will give you an incorrect capacity.
I think rlang59 was using the "royal" you, in that he was stating that's what is standard in the industry, what will be stated on a datasheet, etc...
Here's an example: PANASONIC NCR18650 DATASHEET
Yes that is what I was trying to convey.
